San Jose, CA, July 25, 2013 - Micrel, Incorporated (Nasdaq NM: MCRL), a leading global manufacturer of IC solutions for the worldwide high performance linear and power, LAN and timing and communications markets, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Second quarter revenues totaled $59.2 million, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 0.9%, from $59.7 million in the first quarter of 2013. Micrel experienced strength in most of its end markets except for its mobile handset market which was down 18.2% compared to the prior quarter. Compared to the same period last year, second quarter 2013 revenues were lower by $4.5 million, or 7.1%.
Second quarter 2013 GAAP net income of $5.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compares to first quarter 2013 GAAP net income of $5.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, and GAAP net income of $6.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the same period in 2012. Second quarter 2013 non-GAAP net income of $6.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compares to first quarter 2013 non-GAAP net income of $6.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of $7.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share in the same period of 2012.

Non-GAAP results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expense with the related tax effects.
Micrel Reports 2013 Second Quarter Financial Results
July 25, 2013
Commenting on the second quarter 2013 results, Micrel's President and CEO Ray Zinn said, “Revenues of $59.2 million during the quarter benefited from higher sales of Micrel's products to the communications, computing, consumer and industrial end markets but this strength was offset by lower than anticipated sales to the Company's largest mobile handset customer. Operationally, second quarter gross margin improved sequentially to 52.5% from 52.0% primarily due to a product mix favoring a greater percentage of higher margin communications, computing and industrial products. Despite the continued economic uncertainty facing our industry, I am encouraged by the sustained strength of our bookings, which have yielded a book-to-bill ratio above one for the second quarter and on a year-to-date basis. In addition, we remain focused on increasing shareholder value through our stock repurchase program and quarterly dividend payments. Just this past quarter, Micrel spent $4.7 million to repurchase nearly 469,000 shares of common stock, and we also increased our quarterly dividend 18% to $0.05 per common share to shareholders of record as of August 14, 2013.”
Outlook
Mr. Zinn continued, “We continue to be optimistic about Micrel's future. While the overall semiconductor industry appears to be showing signs of improvement thus far in the third quarter, it now appears that the recovery will not initially be as robust as we originally thought primarily due to continued weakness in the world economies and, in particular, the U.S. economy. Although we are experiencing strength in the automotive and industrial markets, slowing demand in the mobile phone market, and in particular for smartphones, is impacting growth for the industry as a whole. However, we are encouraged with the improved booking levels we are getting from our largest mobile customer for the third quarter.”
“Based upon current inventory levels and demand estimates, Micrel projects third quarter 2013 revenue growth will be in the range of flat to plus 5% on a sequential basis. Gross profit margin is expected to be approximately 52.0%. In addition, the Company estimates that third quarter 2013 GAAP net income will be approximately $0.07 to $0.09 per diluted share. Design win momentum continues to improve and we are releasing exciting new products which give us confidence the Company will be able to grow going forward,” Mr. Zinn concluded.

Non-GAAP Reporting
The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures only because investors and financial analysts use non-GAAP results in their analysis of historical results and projections of the Company's future operating results. The Company's management uses non-GAAP measures on a limited basis, primarily for employee performance-based compensation. In order to facilitate the computation of non-GAAP results for the financial analyst community and investors, the Company makes reference to non-GAAP net income and earnings per share. These non-GAAP results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expense with related taxes. Micrel references those results to allow a better comparison of results in the current period to those in prior periods and to provide insight to the Company's on-going operating performance after exclusion of these items. The Company has reconciled such non-GAAP results to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the financial tables at the end of this press release.
Reference to these non-GAAP results should be considered in addition to results that are prepared under current accounting standards, but should not be considered a substitute for results that are presented in accordance with GAAP. It should also be noted that Micrel's non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.
