“Our strong financial performance in the first quarter of 2015 represents the most profitable first quarter in our Company’s history. An overall 6 percent sequential increase in our product revenue, and 28 percent increase compared with the first quarter of 2014, in what is historically a seasonally weaker quarter in our industry, led this improvement,” said Dr. Avi Katz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GigOptix, Inc. “The continuous demand for our 40Gbps devices for enhanced data center infrastructure installations, and for our 100Gbps coherent linear devices for new Telecom infrastructure installations, combined with our stable Industrial/ASIC product sales, drove our stronger than expected results.
“At the recent OFC conference a few weeks ago, we featured several new Datacom and Telecom 100Gbps and 400Gbps products, all of which have already been accepted by leading Telecom and Datacom customers, and which will be the main drivers of our expected continuous revenue growth this year. In addition, we are releasing new products in our High-Speed Communications product lines, including our first 100Gbps linear TIA, which will be shortly available for sampling by key Telecom customers. These products will expand on our already strong position in areas within the Telecom and data-center markets that are quickly moving to 400Gbps and 100Gbps platforms, respectively. In our Industrial business, we recently announced the launch of new power management mixed-signal ASIC products to address high-end applications in the automotive industry. This represents a new and complimentary business approach with our ASIC technology wherein we initiate engagements for sophisticated mixed-signal, RF and optical ASIC devices that leverage on our skills in high-speed and high-frequency RF device design. Additionally, these engagements expand upon our ASIC design knowledge and should open up new opportunities in what is a very stable and highly profitable segment of our business,” said Dr. Katz.
“With a strong start to our fiscal 2015, a solid backlog for the coming quarter and encouraging revenue projections for the rest of the year, we have increasing confidence that our financial performance this year will result in record revenue, and non-GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA profitability, while at the same time getting us closer to achieving our next goal of delivering GAAP profitability,” said Dr. Katz.
Financial Outlook
“The positive momentum we have seen in the last year should continue into the June quarter with revenue expected to be in the range of $9.3 million to $9.5 million, or up 3 percent to 5 percent sequentially,” said Darren Ma, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of GigOptix, Inc. “While it is still early in our fiscal year, we reinforce our previous forecast of annual revenue to be approximately $37 million to $38 million, or growing approximately 14 percent over the prior year.”
