Revenues were $103.1 million; GAAP earnings were $0.46 per diluted share; non-GAAP earnings were $0.67 per diluted share
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 26, 2018--Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Net revenues for the first quarter were $103.1 million, a decrease of five percent from the prior quarter and a decrease of two percent from the first quarter of 2017. Net income for the quarter was $14.2 million or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.57 per share in the prior quarter and net income of $0.47 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2017. Cash flow from operations was $15.7 million for the quarter.
In addition to its GAAP results, the company provided certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, the tax effects of these items, and a charge incurred in the fourth quarter of 2017 in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2018 was $20.4 million or $0.67 per diluted share, compared with $0.74 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $0.63 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2017.
Commented Balu Balakrishnan, president and CEO of Power Integrations: “First-quarter revenues were consistent with our expectations, while gross margins exceeded our projections due mainly to a favorable end-market mix. Bookings strengthened compared with the prior quarter, and we expect healthy sequential revenue growth in the second quarter.”

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the company's consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes stock-based compensation expenses recorded under ASC 718-10, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets (including in-place lease intangible assets), the tax effects of these items, and a charge related to the 2017 tax legislation. The company uses these measures in its financial and operational decision-making and, with respect to one measure, in setting performance targets for compensation purposes. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer important analytical tools to help investors understand its operating results, and to facilitate comparability with the results of companies that provide similar measures. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company’s compensation mix, and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company’s GAAP results for the foreseeable future, but is not reflected in the non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including companies in Power Integrations’ industry, may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures are attached to this press release.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The statements in this press release regarding the company’s expectations and forecast for its second-quarter financial performance are forward-looking statements reflecting management's current expectations and beliefs. These forward-looking statements are based on current information that is, by its nature, subject to rapid and even abrupt change. Due to risks and uncertainties associated with the company's business, actual results could differ materially from those projected or implied by these statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: changes in global macroeconomic conditions, which may impact the level of demand for the company’s products; potential changes and shifts in customer demand away from end products that utilize the company's integrated circuits to end products that do not incorporate the company's products; the effects of competition, which may cause the company’s revenues to decrease or cause the company to decrease its selling prices for its products; the outcome and cost of patent litigation, which may affect sales of the company’s products or could result in higher expenses and charges than currently expected; unforeseen costs and expenses; and unfavorable fluctuations in component costs or operating expenses resulting from changes in commodity prices and/or exchange rates. In addition, new product introductions and design wins are subject to the risks and uncertainties that typically accompany development and delivery of complex technologies to the marketplace, including product development delays and defects and market acceptance of the new products. These and other risk factors that may cause actual results to differ are more fully explained under the caption “Risk Factors” in the company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 14, 2018. The company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any obligation) to update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the SEC.
