GSI Technology, Inc. Announces First-Quarter Fiscal 2009 Results

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--July 31, 2008--GSI Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: GSIT) today announced financial results for the first quarter of its fiscal year ending March 31, 2009.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the company reported net revenue of $17.3 million and net income of $3.0 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to first-quarter fiscal 2008 net revenue of $11.3 million and net income of $1.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share. This represents the company's nineteenth consecutive quarter of profitability.

Sequentially, net revenue and net income were, respectively, 14.0% and 7.7% higher than fourth-quarter fiscal 2008 net revenue and net income of $15.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Pre-tax income increased by $952,000, to $4.3 million from $3.3 million in the prior quarter.

First-quarter 2009 gross margin was 44.3% compared to 44.5% in the prior quarter and 39.1% a year ago. Fourth-quarter 2008 gross margin benefited by approximately 2.4% from a one-time payment received from a third party for the rights to second source the company's 36 megabit SigmaQuad products; this payment reduced the fourth-quarter 2008 cost of goods sold by approximately $371,000.

"In both sales and profitability, we continue to build on the momentum established in prior quarters," said Lee-Lean Shu, the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The growth in revenue — which was accompanied by stronger margins as the sales mix shifted toward a higher percentage of high-density products — was driven primarily by an increase in direct and indirect sales to Cisco Systems, which were $5.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 compared to $4.2 million in each of the preceding two quarters. The other significant contributor was a $400,000 shipment of a high-density device to a customer in the military/defense sector; this, in conjunction with a strong increase in sales of SigmaQuad products, further contributed to the improvement in margins."

SigmaQuad shipments were approximately 8.2% of total shipments in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, compared to shipments of approximately 5.5% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.

SG&A expenses were $2.5 million, or 14.2% of revenue, compared to $2.7 million, or 17.6% of revenue, in the prior quarter, and $2.2 million, or 19.3% of revenue, a year ago. First-quarter operating margin was 23.0% compared to 19.7% in the prior quarter, when operating margin, like gross margin, benefited by approximately 2.4% from the aforementioned one-time third-party payment; a year ago, operating margin was 9.7%.

At June 30, 2008, inventory was $13.7 million compared to $15.7 million at the end of the prior quarter.

Total first-quarter pre-tax stock-based compensation expense was $329,000 compared to $312,000 in the prior quarter and $387,000 in the comparable period a year ago.

At June 30, 2008, the company had $32.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, $27.2 million in long-term investments, $47.3 million in working capital, and stockholders’ equity of $80.9 million.

Outlook for Second-Quarter Fiscal 2009:

For the three months ending September 30, 2008, the company currently expects to report net revenue in the range of $16.5 million to $17.3 million, with gross margin in the range of 42% to 43%.
