QuickLogic Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results and Affirms Its Expectation for Full Year Profitability

SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 14, 2023 — (PRNewswire) — QuickLogic Corporation (NASDAQ: QUIK) ("QuickLogic" or the "Company"), a developer of embedded FPGA (eFPGA) IP, ruggedized FPGAs and Endpoint AI solutions, today announced its financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended July 2, 2023.

Highlights

  • Significant revenue contribution from the next, executed phase of the large eFPGA contract we announced in 2022 is expected during the second half of 2023

  • Sales funnel grew to a record $140 million, with conversion expected to accelerate during the second half of 2023
  • Top-tier microcontroller company is in the final stages of integrating its private label version of SensiML AI/ML solutions across its broad product line

  • Our first 12nm eFPGA IP core expected to be completed this quarter

"While the timing of the award for the next phase of the large eFPGA contract negatively impacted our second quarter results, with this next, substantially larger contract phase fully executed and new bookings generated from our growing sales funnel, we reaffirm full year revenue growth will be above 30%," said Brian Faith, CEO of QuickLogic. "In addition to accelerated revenue growth, we also are affirming our expectation that we will report second half and full year non-GAAP profitability for 2023."   

Fiscal Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $2.9 million, a decrease of 29.3% compared with the first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of 35.7% compared with the second quarter of 2022.

New product revenue was approximately $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $0.9 million, or 26.9%, compared with the first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $0.9 million, or 28.7%, compared with the second quarter of 2022. The completion of the $6.9 million government contract in the second quarter and the delay of the add-on contract led to the lower than anticipated revenue.

Mature product revenue was $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 36.2%, compared with the first quarter of 2023. Mature product revenue in the second quarter of 2023 decreased 51.2% compared to the second quarter of 2022.

Second quarter 2023 GAAP gross margin was 41.2% compared with 57.8% in the first quarter of 2023, and 56.0% in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in gross margins was primarily related to revenue volatility resulting from delays in starting new phases of an existing contract.

Second quarter 2023 non-GAAP gross margin was 44.2% compared with 59.7% in the first quarter of 2023, and 58.6% in the second quarter of 2022.

Second quarter 2023 GAAP operating expenses were $3.4 million compared with $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2023, and $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Second quarter 2023 non-GAAP operating expenses were $2.9 million compared with $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2023, and $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Second quarter 2023 GAAP net loss was $2.3 million, or $0.17 per share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.09 per share, in the first quarter of 2023, and a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.04 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.

Second quarter 2023 non-GAAP net loss was $1.7 million, or $0.12 per share, compared with a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.04 per share, in the first quarter of 2023, and a net loss of $47 thousand, or $0.00 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.
