TOKYO — (BUSINESS WIRE) — February 7, 2019 — Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723, “Renesas”), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today reported the financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018 (October 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018) and the financial results for the year ended December 31, 2018 (January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018).

“In our full year 2018 and fourth quarter, our non-GAAP semiconductor sales decreased by 3.3% year-on-year, and the non-GAAP gross margin decreased by 2.1 points on a year-on-year basis. Our fourth quarter non-GAAP semiconductor sales decreased by 11.0% year-on-year, and non-GAAP gross margin decreased by 7.0 points on a year-on-year basis. Impacts from the weak market conditions as well as our continued efforts to restrain our production volume to achieve optimal inventory levels led to these decreases,” said Bunsei Kure, Representative Director, President and CEO, Renesas Electronics Corporation. “For the first quarter ending March 31, 2019, in light of the continued weak market, we expect semiconductor sales to decrease year-on-year and also foresee a drop in gross margin from a year-ago quarter. With uncertainties for sales in the short term, we will thoroughly control cash and improve operational efficiency and reduce costs through selective concentration of R&D. As for our growth strategy, we will update and announce our mid-term plan after the completion of IDT acquisition.”

(1) Non-GAAP Basis: Non-GAAP figures are calculated by adjusting or removing non-recurring items and other adjustments from GAAP figures. The Group believes non-GAAP measures provide useful information in understanding and evaluating the Group’s constant business results, and therefore results are provided in non-GAAP base. This adjustment and exclusion include the amortization of goodwill and depreciation of intangible assets recognized from acquisitions, other PPA (purchase price allocation) adjustments and costs relating to acquisitions, stock-based compensation, as well as other non-recurring expenses and income the Group believes to be applicable. In addition, following the adoption of IFRS, amortization of goodwill has been removed from the definition above.
(2) EBITDA: Sum of operating income, depreciation and amortization, and amortization of long-term prepaid expenses. Amortization of goodwill is also included for Japan GAAP-based EBITDA.
