NetLogic Microsystems Announces
Second Quarter 2004 Financial Results; Total Revenue Grows 44%
Sequentially and 152% Year-over-Year
Mountain View, CA – August 4, 2004 – NetLogic Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETL), today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2004.
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2004 was $11.9 million, an increase of 43.7% over the first quarter 2004, and an increase of 152.5% from the $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2003. The revenue increase was driven by increased customer demand for the Company’s knowledge-based processors. Product revenue for the second quarter of 2004 was $11.3 million, an increase of 44.9% over the first quarter 2004, and an increase in product revenue of 562% from $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2003.
Net loss, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2004, was ($2.9) million or ($0.78) per share, as compared to a net loss of ($5.4) million or ($1.58) per share in the first quarter of 2004. Pro forma net loss, or net loss excluding amortization of stock-based compensation and note discounts in the second quarter of 2004, was ($0.7) million or ($0.20) per share, as compared to a pro forma net loss of ($3.2) million, or ($0.92) per share, in the first quarter of 2004.
The Company believes the additional non-GAAP measures provided are useful to investors for the performance of financial analysis, because it highlights the Company’s operating activities. The Company’s management uses this pro forma measure internally to evaluate its operation performance in planning for its future periods. However, pro forma measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures. For a full reconciliation of GAAP versus pro forma financial information on a quarterly basis, please see the attached schedule.
“The second quarter was an excellent quarter for NetLogic Microsystems. In addition to completing our initial public offering, we experienced rapid revenue growth, improvement in product margins and significant progress towards reaching profitability,” said Ron Jankov, the Company’s President and CEO. “Our breakthrough product, the knowledge-based processor, enjoyed increasing success in the marketplace, further underscoring the power of our proprietary architecture.”
The breakthrough architecture of the Company’s knowledge-based processors continues to provide significant differentiation in the most demanding networking and communications applications. The advanced multiple pipeline parallel architecture can process up to four Layer-4 tasks simultaneously, allowing for real-time processing of routing, security, quality of service and transaction billing at 10G line rates. Total processing performance is up to 500 million decisions per second, enabling key next-generation Internet features such as voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and video on demand (VOD). This high-speed architecture also helps support thousands of virtual private networks (VPNs) in hardware, as well as providing the processing capability for other more advanced security features.
The Company continues to focus on very high-speed logic design and full-custom transistor and data-path optimization. This, coupled with TSMC’s advanced 0.13 micron LV logic process with seven layers of high-speed copper interconnect, provides the fastest and lowest power fabrication technology, giving the Company a significant advantage over memory process-based designs using aluminum interconnect.
Following is a review of some of the Company’s recent key accomplishments:
| • | The Company shipped its 100,000th knowledge-based processor, a rapid ramp from just a few thousand units that were shipped prior to the middle of 2003. |
| • | Adding to this sales momentum were two new end-customer systems that were launched during the quarter, using the Company’s knowledge-based processors: one each from our two largest customers, Cisco and Hitachi. This brings total end-customer systems in volume production to seven. |
| • | The Company’s knowledge-based processors continued to win designs in the most demanding applications. During Q2, the Company closed five new design wins. All of these programs are at “Top 20” networking OEMs. Using a very conservative metric, the Company only declares a design win once it has received significant revenue orders for a program that is within six to twelve months of volume production. Three of the five programs support multiple 10GE ports, increasing the Company’s design-win leadership in this segment. The other design wins were a multiple port 2.5G router, which supports a very high level of security and quality of service, and an advanced security system, which supports thousands of VPNs. Design engagements, where customers are actively designing with the Company’s products, but for which the Company has not yet received significant revenue orders, continue to grow at a multiple of design wins. |
| • | The Company received initial production from TSMC’s 0.13 micron logic process technology on 300 mm wafers. The Company will transition its highest volume knowledge-based processors to 300mm production starting in Q1 2005, and anticipates completing the transition within calendar year 2005. Early indications are that 300mm wafer production will lower the Company’s per-unit silicon cost and enhance gross margins. |
| • | The Company experienced sequential growth in all three of its major end markets. These end markets are Enterprise Switches and Routers, Telecom and IP Infrastructure, and Broadband Access. The Broadband Access market includes Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexers (DSLAMs), Cable-Modem Termination Systems (CMTS) and other broadband access multiplexers for Ethernet aggregation and Fiber-to-the-Premises aggregation. |
