TESSERA TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES
SECOND QUARTER 2005 RESULTS
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 28, 2005 –Tessera Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSRA), a leading provider of miniaturization technologies for the electronics industry, announced today its financial results for the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2005.
Highlights: Second Quarter 2005 Compared to Second Quarter 2004
| | • | | Total revenue was $22.5 million, up 27 percent. |
| | • | | Royalties and License Fees revenue (previously identified as Intellectual Property (IP) revenue) was $13.3 million, up 63 percent. |
| | • | | Services revenue was $3.8 million, up 31 percent. |
Income before taxes was $12.0 million for the second quarter of 2005, compared to $9.2 million in the prior year’s quarter. The company’s effective book tax rate in the second quarter of 2005 was 36 percent compared to 5 percent in the prior year’s quarter. This increase reflects the reversal in the fourth quarter of 2004 of the valuation allowance against the company’s deferred tax asset, which consisted mainly of net operating losses carried forward (NOL) from prior periods. Net income was $7.7 million for the second quarter of 2005. This included an income tax provision charge of $4.2 million, of which $1.2 million was cash taxes paid. The prior year’s net income was $8.7 million, which included an income tax provision charge of $497,000, of which $313,000 was cash taxes paid.
Pro forma net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $10.9 million and pro forma net income per diluted share was $0.23, compared to $8.9 million and $0.19, respectively, last year. Pro forma net income is defined as income adjusted for non-cash tax expense and stock-based compensation. Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter 2005 on a GAAP basis were $0.16, compared to $0.19 last year.
Bruce McWilliams, Tessera’s chairman and chief executive officer, stated, “During the first half of 2005, Tessera demonstrated continued strong growth with an almost 50 percent increase in Royalties and License Fees from the first half of 2004. The growth was driven by new customers and expanded agreements with existing customers. Furthermore, our royalty revenue from packages used for DRAM almost tripled in the first half of 2005 compared to the first half of 2004. As DDR2 is still in the beginning stages of adoption, revenue from this area is not yet significant; however, it will keep increasing in importance for us into 2006.”
“Looking ahead, our long-term growth is expected to be driven by a number of factors. First, we expect continued strong consumer demand for small form factor, feature-rich products that utilize increasingly greater amounts of our chip-scale and multi-chip packaging technology. Second, we believe we are paid on less than half of all the chip scale packages produced using our technology, and we anticipate signing new licensees. Third, we are confident that chip scale packages will be used for both DDR2 and DDR3 chips, as we believe chip scale packages will be the most cost-effective means of packaging these chips. We estimate once DDR2 becomes mainstream in 2006, our Royalties and License Fees growth rate will approximate 50 percent for years to come.”
McWilliams continued, “Our goal is to expand well beyond our core technology by the end of the decade, and we are executing on our strategy. For example, in May, we announced an expansion of our relationship with North Corporation, a developer of advanced circuit board technologies in Japan. Our agreement with North evidences our commitment to growing our IP portfolio and building the infrastructure required to support Tessera’s future technology.”
Highlights: Six-month Period Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to June 30, 2004
| | • | | Total revenue was $50.4 million, up 64 percent. |
| | • | | Royalties and License Fees was $25.1 million, up 48 percent. |
| | • | | Services revenue was $7.6 million, up 47 percent. |
Net income for the first half of 2005 was $19.7 million, compared to net income of $12.8 million in the first half of 2004. Pro forma net income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $28 million and pro forma net income per diluted share was $0.59, compared to $13.9million and $0.30 per diluted share, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Pro forma net income is defined as income adjusted for non-cash tax expense and stock-based compensation. Earnings per diluted share for the first half of 2005 on a GAAP basis were $0.41, compared to $0.28 for the first half of 2004.
“Tessera ended the second quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $138 million, compared to $127.1 million at the end of the prior quarter,” said Doug Norby, senior vice president and chief financial officer. “Our research and development expenses plus costs of revenue, representing our total technical effort, was $9.3 million for the first half of 2005, up 17 percent from last year’s first half. This effectively demonstrates our success in having Tessera’s customers fund a greater portion of our total technical effort.”
2005 Financial Guidance
Tessera expects third quarter 2005 total revenues to be in the range of $18.5 million to $19.0 million. Expenses, which include cost of revenue, research and development, and sales, general and administrative, are expected to be approximately $13.0 million. The book-tax rate is projected to be 36 percent with cash taxes paid approximately 3 percent of revenue during this third quarter. Tessera estimates a fully diluted share count using the treasury method of approximately 48 million in the third quarter 2005 as compared to 47.5 million in the second quarter of 2005.
For the full year 2005, Tessera now expects total revenues to be in the range of $94.0 million to $96.0 million. This compares to the company’s previous guidance given on June 8th of $92.0 million to $94.0 million. Expenses, which include cost of revenue, research and development, and sales, general and administrative, are projected to be in the range of $47.5 million to $48.0 million. The company’s book-tax rate is projected to be 36 percent of pre-tax income with cash taxes paid ranging from 4 percent to 5 percent of revenue for the year as a whole. Diluted share count for the year as a whole is projected to be 48.2 million.
Norby continued, “Regarding our guidance policy, as stated previously we include estimates of the impact of new agreements in our annual guidance; however, for our quarterly guidance, we do not include the impact of new agreements that are not already signed. The increased full-year 2005 revenue guidance is due to the anticipated increase in contributions from all revenue lines coming into the second half of 2005, due both to second quarter revenues being higher than projected and increases in our outlook for revenue for the second half of 2005.”
