Financial Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2013 Ended March 31, 2013
Net revenue was $12.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, an increase of $30,000, compared to $12.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 and flat with the second quarter of fiscal 2013.
Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was 46.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to 48.8% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 and 49.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The decline in gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was primarily due to increased manufacturing costs.
Operating expenses were $6.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $5.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 and $6.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The year-over-year change in operating expenses was primarily due to an increase in planned marketing activities to drive new product sales growth and brand awareness.

Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2013 were $7.2 million, compared to $11.4 million as of June 30, 2012. The decrease in cash was primarily due to an increase in inventory from $6.0 million as of June 30, 2012 to $9.2 million as of March 31, 2013 to support buffer stock and new product launches. In addition, cash was used to make scheduled payments on our existing term loan and invest in capital assets to support product development and manufacturing.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Lantronix believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial information, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share are important measures of the Company’s business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance.
Non-GAAP operating expenses consist of operating expenses excluding (i) share-based compensation and related payroll taxes (ii) depreciation and amortization, and (iii) restructuring charges.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net income (loss) excluding (i) non-GAAP adjustments to operating expenses, (ii) interest income (expense), (iii) other income (expense), and (iv) income tax provision (benefit).
Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) by non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, the calculation of GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, which for GAAP purposes is treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method.
