(NASDAQ: PCTI), a leader in wireless broadband solutions, announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006. Financial highlights of the quarter were: - $26.8 MILLION in revenue for the quarter, an INCREASE OF 46 percent over the same period last year. Most of the increase - $7 million - reflects the resolution of PCTEL's intellectual property dispute with Agere. Revenue from product operations was up 8 percent over the same period last year. - $12.8 MILLION in revenue for the quarter from the Antenna Products Group. This is a DECREASE OF 5 percent over the second quarter last year. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was up 6 percent from the same period a year ago. Results were unfavorably impacted by the termination of the SDARS (satellite radio antennas for retail outlets) late last year, but favorably impacted by the acquisition of the iVET(TM) product line during the third quarter of 2005. - $2.7 MILLION in revenue for the quarter from the Mobility Solutions Group. This is an INCREASE OF 104 percent over the second quarter last year. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was up 97 percent from the same period a year ago. - $4.0 MILLION in revenue for the quarter from the RF Solutions Group. This is a 21 PERCENT INCREASE over the second quarter of last year. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is also up 21 percent from the same period a year ago. - $7.4 MILLION in licensing revenue for the quarter, an increase of $7.1 million from the second quarter last year. Again, this sharp increase includes the aforementioned patent dispute resolution. - $1.3 MILLION GAIN ON RESTRUCTURING related to the closure of the Company's Dublin Factory and the termination of the local pension plan there. - GAAP NET INCOME OF $6.3 MILLION FOR THE QUARTER, OR $0.29 PER DILUTED SHARE, compared to $(0.3) million net loss, or $(0.02) per share for the same period in 2005. - NON-GAAP NET INCOME OF $8.4 MILLION FOR THE QUARTER, OR $0.39 PER DILUTED SHARE compared to $1.5 million of net income, or $0.07 per share for the same period in 2005. The Company's reporting of non-GAAP income excludes non-cash based expenses for stock compensation and amortization of intangible assets related to the Company's acquisitions. Those expenses were $2.1 million in the second quarter 2006 compared to $1.8 million for the same period a year ago. - $63.8 MILLION OF CASH at June 30, 2006.
