SMSC Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2011 Financial Results
Hauppauge, N.Y. – September, 28, 2010 – SMSC (NASDAQ: SMSC) today announced financial results for its second quarter of fiscal 2011, ended August 31, 2010.
Highlights
· | Second quarter fiscal 2011 revenue of $104.1 million, |
· | Record non-GAAP gross margin at 57.4 percent, |
· | Non-GAAP operating margin of 19 percent, |
· | Non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.51. |
“Results for SMSC’s second quarter were strong with revenue at the high end of guidance and significant outperformance of both non-GAAP gross margins and earnings per share,” said Christine King, President & Chief Executive Officer. “Strong revenue and strict operating expense control contributed to a 19 percent non-GAAP operating margin, surpassing our mid-term model goal of 16 percent. Consumer-related product sales were particularly strong with 18 percent sequential growth, followed by a revenue increase of 10 percent for the Industrial market. The above seasonal sales strength in the first half of fiscal 2011 is expected to result in muted seasonality in the second half of the year, in line with previous expectations. While demand levels in the upcoming holiday season remain uncertain, our design win activity continues to be strong.”
Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $104.1 million, an increase of 7 percent sequentially, or an increase of 39 percent when compared to the same period in the prior year. Non-GAAP gross margin was 57.4 percent and the GAAP gross margin was 56.4 percent. GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $12.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $6.5 million or $0.30 per diluted share for the same period in the prior year. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $11.5 million or $0.51 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.7 million or $0.08 per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2010.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company generated $12.5 million in cash from operations. Cash and investments decreased by $13.4 million sequentially to $179.4 million, mainly as a result of the $22 million cash paid for the acquisition of the STS Wireless Audio business during the second quarter of fiscal 2011.
Business Outlook
Looking ahead to the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company expects:
· | Revenue in the range of $104 to $107 million, |
· | Non-GAAP gross margin to be approximately 56%, |
· | Non-GAAP operating expenses to increase by 4 to 8 percent sequentially, |
· | Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.42 to $0.43. |
The unaudited non-GAAP financial measures in this release, including the business outlook, exclude charges and credits for stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock units and stock options associated with the accounting pursuant to FASB ASC 718, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring charges and related accelerated depreciation on certain test equipment, executive transition costs, costs associated with business acquisition related activities including the impact of writing up the cost of acquired inventory and the revaluation of contingent considerations, and litigation settlement expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Included within the press release are non-GAAP financial measures that supplement the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Income Statements prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the Company's actual results prepared under GAAP to exclude certain charges. In the schedules attached to this press release, the non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to and should be considered together with the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements.
These non-GAAP measures are not meant as a substitute for GAAP, but are included solely for informational and comparative purposes. The Company's management believes that this information assists in evaluating operational trends, financial performance, and cash generating capacity. Management believes these non-GAAP measures allow investors to evaluate SMSC’s financial performance using some of the same measures as management. However, the non-GAAP financial measures should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding, similarly captioned, GAAP measures. SMSC also presents unaudited non-GAAP supplemental vertical market information to provide additional insight into underlying operating performance on a comparable basis. Guidance is presented on a non-GAAP basis only, given that the GAAP basis charges for equity-based compensation related to SARs cannot be projected reasonably.
Forward Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this announcement are forward-looking statements about expected future events and financial and operating results that involve risks and uncertainties. These uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different from those discussed in forward-looking statements. Our risks and uncertainties include the timely development and market acceptance of new products; the impact of competitive products and pricing; our ability to procure capacity from our suppliers and the timely performance of their obligations, commodity prices, interest rates and foreign exchange, potential investment losses as a result of liquidity conditions, the effects of changing economic and political conditions in the market domestically and internationally and on our c ustomers; our relationships with and dependence on customers and growth rates in the personal computer, consumer electronics and embedded and automotive markets and within our sales channel; changes in customer order patterns, including order cancellations or reduced bookings; the effects of tariff, import and currency regulation; potential or actual litigation; and excess or obsolete inventory and variations in inventory valuation, among others. In addition, SMSC competes in the semiconductor industry, which has historically been characterized by intense competition, rapid technological change, cyclical market patterns, price erosion and periods of mismatched supply and demand.
Our forward looking statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations and may not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers or divestitures. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof and are based upon the information available to SMSC at this time. Such statements are subject to change, and the Company does not undertake to update such statements, except to the extent required under applicable law and regulation.
