Maxim Integrated Reports Results For The First Quarter Of Fiscal 2016

[ Back ] [ More News ] [ Home ]

-- Revenue: $563 million

(PRNewswire) — Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM) reported net revenue of $563 million for its first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended September 26, 2015, a 3% decrease from the $583 million revenue recorded in the prior quarter, and a 3% decrease from the same quarter of last year.

Tunc Doluca, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our first quarter financial performance was in line with our expectations." Mr. Doluca continued, "Our soft outlook for the December quarter reflects an unusually high decline in Consumer revenue due to product cycle timing, continued weakness in communications infrastructure, and a seasonally down industrial market. Looking ahead to the March quarter, we expect a rebound of our business, driven by product cycles in Consumer, and continued momentum and visibility in Automotive. We are also on track to reduce costs by $180 million annually. "

Fiscal Year 2016 First Quarter Results
Based on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), basic earnings per share in the September quarter was a $0.25 loss. The results were affected by pre-tax special items which primarily consisted of a $158 million write down of our San Antonio wafer manufacturing facility, $51 million in charges related to other restructuring activities, and $20 million in charges related to acquisitions. GAAP earnings per share, excluding special items was $0.42. An analysis of GAAP versus GAAP excluding special items is provided in the last table of this press release.

Cash Flow Items
At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, total cash, cash equivalents and short term investments were $1.61 billion, a decrease of $17 million from the prior quarter. Notable items included:

Cash flow from operations: $117 million
Net capital additions: $15 million
Dividends: $85 million ($0.30 per share)
Stock repurchases: $40 million

Business Outlook
The Company's 90-day backlog at the beginning of the second fiscal quarter of 2016 was $329 million. Based on the beginning backlog and expected turns, results for the December 2015 quarter are expected to be as follows:

Revenue: $490 million to $520 million
Gross Margin: 56% to 60% GAAP (60% to 63% excluding special items)
EPS: $0.23 to $0.29 GAAP ($0.29 to $0.35 excluding special items)

Maxim Integrated's business outlook does not include the potential impact of any restructuring activity, acquisitions, or other business combinations that may be completed during the quarter.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared under GAAP, Maxim Integrated uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude special items related to intangible asset amortization; accelerated depreciation; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; loss (gain) relating to sale of assets, and expected loss on lease abondonment; sale of a business and impairment of investments in privately-held companies; tax provision impacts due to reversal of tax reserves related to favorable settlement of a foreign tax issue. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate Maxim Integrated's current performance. Many analysts covering Maxim Integrated use the non-GAAP measures as well. Given management's use of these non-GAAP measures, Maxim Integrated believes these measures are important to investors in understanding Maxim Integrated's current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enabling them to better assess changes in Maxim Integrated's core business across different time periods. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures, even if they have similar names. The non-GAAP measures displayed in the table above include the following:

GAAP Gross Profit Excluding Special Items
The use of GAAP gross profit excluding special items allows management to evaluate the gross margin of the Company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization, and accelerated depreciation. In addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP gross profit excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to evaluate our revenue generation performance relative to the direct costs of revenue of Maxim Integrated's core businesses.

GAAP Operating Expenses Excluding Special Items
The use of GAAP operating expenses excluding special items allows management to evaluate the operating expenses of the Company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; loss (gain) relating to sale of assets, and expected loss on lease abondonmentIn addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP operating expenses excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to evaluate our core business and its direct operating expenses.

GAAP Provision for Income Taxes Excluding Special Items
The use of a GAAP provision for income taxes excluding special items allows management to evaluate the provision for income taxes across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including the tax provision impact of pre-tax special items and the reversal of tax reserves related to the favorable settlement of a foreign tax issue. In fiscal year 2016, we began using a long-term tax rate to compute the GAAP provision for income taxes excluding special items. This long-term tax rate considers the income tax impact of pre-tax special items; assumes the Federal research tax credit remains in effect throughout the entire year, and eliminates the effects of significant non-recurring and period specific tax items which vary in size and frequency. We are using a long-term tax rate of 18%, which is the weighted average of our normalized fiscal year GAAP tax rate excluding special items over a four year period that includes the past three fiscal years plus the current fiscal year. We will review the long-term tax rate on an annual basis and whenever events occur that may materially affect the long-term tax rate such as tax law changes; significant changes in our geographic earnings mix; or changes our corporate structure.

GAAP Net Income and GAAP Net Income per Share Excluding Special Items
The use of GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share excluding special items allow management to evaluate the operating results of Maxim Integrated's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization; accelerated depreciation; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; loss (gain) relating to sale of assets, and expected loss on lease abondonment; sale of a business and impairment of investments in privately-held companies; tax provision impacts due to reversal of tax reserves related to favorable settlement of a foreign tax issue; tax effect of pre-tax special items and miscellaneous tax adjustments. In addition, they are important components of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to understand the results of operations of Maxim Integrated's core businesses and to compare our results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in our industry.
