Diodes Incorporated Reports First Quarter Financial Results

(See the reconciliation tables of GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted net income near the end of this release for further details.)

Included in first quarter 2019 GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income was approximately $3.5 million, net of tax, of non-cash share-based compensation expense. Excluding share-based compensation expense, both GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) and non-GAAP adjusted EPS would have increased by $0.07 per diluted share for first quarter 2019, $0.10 for first quarter 2018 and $0.07 for fourth quarter 2018.

EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure), which represents earnings before net interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization, in the first quarter 2019 was $69.9 million, or 23.1 percent of revenue, compared to $54.2 million, or 19.7 percent of revenue, in the first quarter 2018 and $70.5 million, or 22.4 percent of revenue, in the fourth quarter 2018. For a reconciliation of GAAP net income to EBITDA, see the table near the end of this release for further details.

For first quarter 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $69.9 million. Net cash flow was a positive $60.5 million, and free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $51.2 million, which includes $18.6 million of capital expenditures.

Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $308 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, long-term debt (including the current portion) totaled approximately $216 million, and working capital was approximately $525 million.

The results announced today are preliminary and unaudited, as they are subject to the Company finalizing its closing procedures and customary quarterly review by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. As such, these results are subject to revision until the Company files its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2019.

Business Outlook

Dr. Lu concluded, “We expect revenue in second quarter of 2019 to increase to approximately $322 million, plus or minus 2.0 percent. At the mid-point, this represents growth of 6.5 percent sequentially and up 5.9 percent over the prior year period, and reflects continued growth from Diodes organic business as well as revenue contribution from GFAB. We expect GAAP gross margin to be 38.0 percent, plus or minus 1 percent. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which are GAAP operating expenses adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, are expected to be approximately 21 percent of revenue, plus or minus 1 percent. We expect net interest expense to be approximately $2.0 million. Our income tax rate is expected to be 24.5 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, and shares used to calculate diluted EPS for the second quarter are anticipated to be approximately 52 million.”

Purchase accounting adjustments related to amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of $3.7 million, after tax, for Pericom and previous acquisitions are not included in these non-GAAP estimates.
