  EX-99.1 3 a95937exv99w1.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 EXHIBIT 99.1 VIASAT THIRD QUARTER RESULTS INCLUDE RECORD REVENUES, RECORD EARNINGS, AND RECORD BACKLOG CARLSBAD, CA -- ViaSat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a provider of communication equipment for government and commercial customers, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. Highlights for the quarter included record revenues of $71.8 million, net income of $0.30 per share on a pro forma basis or $0.26 per share on a GAAP basis, and net new orders for the quarter of $82.5 million. Growing momentum in ViaSat's business drove results that were ahead of plan. In addition, ViaSat `s financial results included a pre-tax gain of approximately $6.3 million as a result of its settlement of litigation with Scientific-Atlanta relating to the acquisition of the Scientific-Atlanta satellite networks business in April 2000, which is net of specific assets claimed and legal costs. This one-time gain added approximately $0.14 per share to the results on a fully diluted basis for the third quarter. "Our third quarter results clearly indicate the growing momentum behind our business," said Mark Dankberg, chairman and CEO of ViaSat. "Revenues, earnings, and per share earnings all were at record levels for the quarter, representing substantial gains both year over year and sequentially. Results were somewhat better than plan - even without the additional benefits of the settlement agreement. New orders remained very strong, already setting an annual record and putting us in a position to meet our financial objectives for the year. Plus, sustained strength in cash flow driven by growing profitability and improved operating efficiencies allowed us to erase outstanding debt while accumulating over $20 million in cash at quarter's end, giving us significantly enhanced flexibility to support our growth. " FINANCIAL RESULTS For the third quarter ended January 2, 2004*, the company reported the following:
FIRST 9 FIRST 9 (In millions, except per share data) Q3 2004 Q3 2003 MOS. FY04 MOS. FY03 ------------------------------------ ------- ------- --------- --------- Revenues $ 71.8 $ 49.0 $ 195.4 $ 131.3 Net income (loss) $ 7.1 ($2.6) $ 9.4 ($8.3) Diluted per share net income (loss) $ 0.26 ($0.10) $ 0.34 ($0.32)
Pro forma net income (loss)** $ 8.3 ($1.3) $ 12.9 ($4.5) Diluted per share pro forma net income (loss)** $ 0.30 ($0.05) $ 0.47 ($0.18) Weighted average shares 27.7 26.0 27.3 26.0 New orders/Contract awards $ 82.5 $ 56.9 $ 273.3 $ 199.5 Sales backlog $ 291.6 $ 207.6 $ 291.6 $ 207.6
* ViaSat adopted a 52- or 53-week fiscal year beginning with its fiscal year 2004, which ends on the Friday closest to March 31. ViaSat's quarters for fiscal year 2004 end on July 4, 2003, October 3, 2003, January 2, 2004 and April 2, 2004. ** All non-GAAP pro forma numbers have been adjusted to exclude the effects of acquisition charges (amortization of intangible assets). A reconciliation of specific adjustments to GAAP results for these periods is included in the "Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations" table on page 5 of this release. A description of our use of non-GAAP information is provided under "Use of Pro Forma Financial Information" below. GOVERNMENT SEGMENT Government Systems recorded quarterly and nine-month revenues of $33.3 million and $88.5 million, respectively, a 44% increase over the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 and a 47% increase over the prior nine-month period. The revenue growth reflects the significant order growth and associated contract backlog accumulated in our tactical data links, UHF satcom, information assurance and government broadband businesses over the past 18 months. COMMERCIAL SEGMENT Revenue increased to $38.5 million for the third quarter and $106.9 million year-to-date. These figures represent a 49% increase over the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 and an increase of 50% over the first nine months of fiscal year 2003. Revenue growth in commercial business reflects accumulated and growing backlog in broadband systems for consumer and in flight applications, as well as antenna and telemetry systems, plus sustained quarterly order flow in VSAT network products for both commercial and government customers. Operating earnings improved substantially from last quarter, excluding the effects of the settlement. SELECT THIRD QUARTER 2004 BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS - - Generated strong cash from operations during the quarter of $17.6 million, inclusive of the $9.0 million of cash received from the settlement with Scientific-Atlanta. A portion of the cash generated was used to pay-off the remaining balance of our revolving line of credit. As of quarter end, ViaSat had a cash balance of over $20 million. - - Government Systems received a $30 million contract for 120 Multifunctional Information Distribution System LVT(1) terminals from the Royal Netherlands Air Force for its fleet of F-16 aircraft. - - Broadband Systems re-started work under a revised contract valued at over $33 million from WildBlue Communications to begin final development and production of consumer premises and gateway networking equipment to support WildBlue's initial service launch later this year. ViaSat supplied customer equipment includes a Ka-band satellite modem and outdoor Ka-band transceiver electronics from ViaSat's subsidiary US Monolithics LLC. - - Order for a LinkStar hub and 200 terminals from China National Petroleum Company (CNPC) to provide LinkStar(R) broadband VSATs for data collection and video monitoring along the new West-East natural gas pipelines in China, enabling remote monitoring and control of the pipeline. - - Continued strong antenna system bookings and sales for Satellite Ground Systems, led by $3.2 million in follow-on orders for telemetry antenna systems from ITT Technologies as it continues a major modernization of the Eastern and Western launch ranges for the U.S. Air Force Spacelift Range System (SLRS). - - Achieved certification for ISO 9001/2000 across all operating facilities. - - Assessed by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) as a Level 3 organization based on their Software Capability Maturity Model (SW-CMM(R)).

USE OF PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION Pro forma net income (loss) excludes the effects of acquisition charges (amortization of intangible assets). Pro forma net income is provided to enhance the overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the pro forma results provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, since we have historically reported pro forma results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of pro forma numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting. Further, these adjusted pro forma results are one of the primary indicators management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). See the "Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations" table for a reconciliation of net income (loss) to pro forma net income (loss). Pro forma as presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
