Inphi Corporation Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2013 Results

Reports 9.4% Sequential Growth and Record Quarterly Revenues

SANTA CLARA, Calif., February 3, 2014 – Inphi Corporation (NYSE: IPHI), a leading provider of high-speed analog, mixed signal semiconductor solutions for the communications and computing markets, today announced results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2013.

Marking a quarterly revenue record for Inphi, revenue for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $29.1 million, up 9.4% sequentially from $26.6 million reported for the third quarter of 2013. This was also up 27% year over year compared with $22.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Gross margin under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2013 was 65.3% of revenue, compared with 64.3% of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012.

GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $1.3 million, or ($0.04), compared with a GAAP net loss of $16.6 million, or ($0.58) per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Inphi established a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets, which resulted in a one-time, non-cash charge of $14.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The decision to establish the valuation allowance was based on an assessment made at the 2012 year-end that considered factors such as passage of new California tax law as well as projected taxable income. The establishment of a valuation allowance does not preclude Inphi from using its loss-carryforward, research and development tax credits and other deferred tax assets in the future.

Inphi reports gross margin, net income (loss), and earnings per share in accordance with GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP gross margin, net income, and earnings per share, as well as a description of the items excluded from the non-GAAP calculations, is included in the financial statements portion of this news release.

Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis for the fourth quarter of 2013 was 66.3% of revenue, compared with 65.4% of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $2.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share. This compared with non-GAAP net income of $1.0 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2012.

“With a strong showing in the fourth quarter, we closed out a healthy 2013 – exceeding the $100 million threshold in revenue” said Ford Tamer, President and CEO of Inphi. “We are grateful for the hard work of our entire team – having delivered robust new products and strong technical support to our customers. We have also steadily improved our operating margin from breakeven for Q1 to more than 10% on a non GAAP basis for Q4. Turning to full-year 2014, we believe we are poised to deliver both accelerating revenue growth and improved operating margins, without compromising our long-term development opportunities.”

Full Year 2013 Results

For the year ended December 31, 2013, revenue was $102.7 million, compared with $91.2 million for 2012. GAAP net loss for 2013 was $13.2 million, or ($0.45) per diluted share, on approximately 29.5 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. This compared with GAAP net loss of $20.7 million, or ($0.73) per diluted share, on approximately 28.4 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for 2012.


Non GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $3.9 million, or approximately $0.12 per diluted share. This compared with non-GAAP net income of $5.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Business Outlook

The following statements are based on our current expectations for the first quarter of 2014. These statements are forward looking and actual results may differ materially.

 

    Revenues are expected to be up 3% – 10% sequentially for Q1 2014, resulting in a range of $30 million to $32 million.
    Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be approximately 65.5% – 66.5%.
    Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be in the range of $4.4 million to $4.6 million.
    GAAP results are expected to be a net loss in a range between $0.8 million to breakeven, or ($0.03) – breakeven per diluted share, on approximately 30.8 million basic shares outstanding.
    Non-GAAP net income, excluding stock-based compensation expense, is expected to be in the range of $2.5 million to $3.4 million, or $0.08 – $0.10 per diluted share, on 32.6 million estimated fully diluted shares outstanding.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in the press release and certain matters to be discussed on the fourth quarter of 2013 conference call regarding Inphi Corporation, which are not historical facts, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may be identified by terms such as outlook, believe, expect, may, will, provide, could, and should, and the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.

These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated as a result of various factors,

INPHI CORPORATION

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET INCOME TO NON-GAAP NET INCOME

(in thousands of dollars, except share and per share amounts)

To supplement the audited financial data presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude stock-based compensation, certain warranty, legal costs and other claims, abandoned office costs, accelerated depreciation of certain property and equipment associated with the facility to be abandoned and deferred tax asset valuation allowance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP. These results should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The Company believes that its non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations; non-GAAP financial information excludes charges or benefits that management considers to be outside of the Company’s core operating results. The Company believes that the non-GAAP measures of gross margin, net income and earnings per share, in combination with the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective and a more meaningful understanding of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. In addition, the Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to review and assess the financial performance of the Company, to determine executive officer incentive compensation and to plan and forecast performance in future periods. The Company’s non-GAAP measurements are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and are not an alternative to GAAP financial information; these measurements may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies.
