Milpitas, CA, October 20, 2010 – Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: ISIL), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high performance analog and mixed signal semiconductors, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended October 1, 2010.
Results of Operations
Net revenues for the third quarter were $219.1 million, a 30% increase from $168.3 million in the third quarter of 2009, and essentially flat compared to the $219.9 million in the second quarter of 2010. Intersil’s third quarter revenues ranked by end market were as follows: industrial, 34.4%; high-end consumer, 23.6%; computing, 21.2%; and communications, 20.8%.
Gross margin for the third quarter increased to a record 58.9%, compared with gross margin of 54.6% in the same quarter last year, and 58.3% in the second quarter of 2010.
Operating margin increased to 17.5% during the third quarter. Net income increased to $32.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared with net income of $12.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the same quarter last year, and net loss of $59.4 million, or a loss of $0.48 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010. Excluding the effects of intangible amortization and one-time acquisition charges, operating income was $48.2 million, or 22.0% of revenue, and excluding discrete tax benefits, net income was $34.5 million, or $0.28 per diluted share.
“Intersil’s third quarter revenues were similar to the prior quarter despite significantly reduced shipments of our PC power management products,” said Dave Bell, Intersil’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continued to make excellent progress in transforming our business towards higher margin industrial markets. The entire company also did an excellent job of managing operating expenses and manufacturing costs, allowing us to achieve record gross margin and our earnings guidance.”
At the end of the third quarter, Intersil’s cash and short-term investments totaled over $370 million, and free cash flow was $38 million for the third quarter.
Intersil’s Board of Directors has authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock. The payment of this dividend will be made on November 19, 2010 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 9, 2010.
Fourth Quarter 2010 Outlook
| • | Revenues are expected to be in the range of $202 million to $214 million (-8% to -2% sequentially) |
| • | Research and development expenses are expected to be approximately $47 million |
| • | Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to be approximately $35 million |
| • | Stock-based compensation expenses are expected to be approximately $9.2 million |
| • | Amortization of intangibles is expected to be approximately $7.3 million |
| • | GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.17 to $0.20 |
| • | Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share (excluding amortization of intangibles) are expected to be in the range of $0.21 to $0.24 |
“We expect the recent inventory correction to end and shipments to become better aligned with consumption during the fourth quarter. Design win activity remains strong across all end markets, and we are gaining share in industrial, our largest end market. Additionally, our business continues to benefit from our manufacturing capacity and low lead times,” said Bell.
