Exhibit 99.1
Advanced Photonix, Inc. Reports 35% increase in Second quarter revenues
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 12, 2013 -- Advanced Photonix® (NYSE MKT: API) (the Company, we, us or our) today reported improved results for the second quarter ended September 27, 2013.
Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter Ended September 27, 2013
| | · | Net sales for the quarter were $7.5 million, an increase of $2.0 million or 35% from the second quarter ended September 28, 2012. Sequentially, revenues were up 6% relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Sales growth due to the March acquisition of the Silonex net assets by Advanced Photonix Canada (APC) and telecommunication transmission and test revenues have lead the way. |
| | · | Gross profit margin for Q1 FY2014 was 37.0% of sales compared to 35.3% for the second quarter ended September 28, 2012. Cost reduction efforts and improved volumes helped improve the rate. |
| | · | Current quarter net loss was $578,000 or $0.02 per diluted share, as compared to a quarterly net loss of $1,287,000, or $0.04 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 28, 2012. Increased sales and related gross margin explain the 55% reduction in the net loss. |
| | · | The Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $300,000 or $0.01 per diluted share, as compared to a Non-GAAP loss of $943,000, or $.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter last year. Increased sales and related gross margin explain the 68% reduction in the net loss. |
| | · | Adjusted EBITDA (which is defined as GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation), was a positive $20,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 as compared to negative adjusted EBITDA of $718,000 for the quarter ended September 28, 2012. |
Operating Expenses
The Company’s total operating expenses for the quarter were $3.3 million, up approximately $87,000 from the prior year quarter due primarily to the operating expenses assumed with the APC acquisition. Total operating expenses were 44.3% of sales compared to 58.1% for the second quarter last year.
Balance Sheet
The Company finished the quarter with $371,000 in cash compared to $619,000 as of March 31, 2013. Approximately $1.3 million was drawn on the Company’s line of credit. Net working capital as of September 27, 2013 was $3.6 million.
Richard Kurtz, Chief Executive Officer commented, “The second quarter came in pretty much as we expected continuing the trajectory of having a 35% year over year improvement in sales. The most recent government shutdown and the effects of sequestration have interrupted the continuity of several Terahertz development contracts and the normal flow of our military/aerospace business. Near term demand in our test and measurement and telecommunications transmission products have the opportunity to mitigate these recent headwinds. This quarter test and measurement sales represented 62% of our total revenues as we continue to solve our customer’s need to quantify and evaluate key elements in their applications that can only be done through optical sensing. We look forward to continued success in the test and measurement market, as well as overall growth for the Company.”
