FEI Reports Record Revenue and EPS for the Fourth Quarter and 2011
Q4 Revenue of $213.0 million, up 14% from Q4-2010
Q4 GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.72, up 38% from Q4-2010

HILLSBORO, Ore., February 8, 2012 - FEI Company (NASDAQ: FEIC) reported record revenue and earnings for 2011 and for the fourth quarter. Revenue and earnings per share computed on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) were the highest of any quarter in the company's history. Several items had an impact on the fourth quarter GAAP results, as detailed below and in the attached table.
Fourth quarter revenue of $213.0 million was up 14% compared to $186.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 and up 4% from $205.3 million in the third quarter of 2011.
The gross margin in the fourth quarter was 44.4%, compared with 45.0% in the fourth quarter of 2010 and equal to the third quarter of 2011.
GAAP net income was $29.1 million or $0.72 per diluted share, compared with $21.3 million or $0.52 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2010 and $26.2 million or $0.63 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2011. The fourth quarter of 2011 includes a net tax benefit of $7.8 million, which includes a cumulative benefit of $12.4 million due to the Netherlands Tax Authority's approval of FEI's use of the “Innovation Box” for a portion of its Dutch taxable income. The benefit of the Innovation Box extends into 2012 and later years and lowers the company's estimated overall effective tax rate to approximately 22%. In addition, the company incurred charges to operating expenses of $5.3 million related to certain patent litigation matters, a $2.1 million charge for early termination of a contract, and $1.4 million for impairment of an intangible asset. Adjusting for the tax benefit and the previously mentioned charges and applying an appropriate tax rate results in non-GAAP net income of $25.4 million and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.63 for the quarter. A reconciliation of these charges and benefits along with their impact on net income and earnings per share is included in a table attached to this press release, along with detailed GAAP statements of operations, balance sheets and additional supplementary information. Management's reasons for presenting non-GAAP information are outlined later in this release.
For the fourth quarter of 2011, gross bookings were $212.0 million. Net bookings were $203.6 million after reduction of the ending backlog due to currency movements. Net bookings were $218.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 and $186.4 million in the third quarter of 2011. The backlog at the end of the quarter was $430.7 million.
For the full year 2011, revenue was $826.4 million, an all-time record for the company and up 30% from $634.2 million in 2010. Net income was $103.6 million or $2.51 per diluted share, nearly double the $53.5 million or $1.34 per diluted share posted for 2010. Gross margin for the year increased to 44.5% from 42.5% in 2010.
Total cash, investments and restricted cash at the end of the quarter was $456.1 million, an increase of $20.4 million from the end of the third quarter. Total cash, investments and restricted cash increased $32.3 million during the year, after the repurchase of $50 million of the company's common stock and $14.1 million for the acquisition of TILL Photonics.





“A strong fourth quarter completed a transformational year for FEI,” commented Don Kania, president and CEO. “Revenue grew by over 30%, margins improved, we increased R&D spending for future growth, earnings nearly doubled and cash flow from operating activities was over $100 million. We have also taken important steps in the execution of our growth strategy by acquiring companies strategic to our high-growth Life Sciences and Natural Resources businesses, and the announcement of two important collaborations for biology research with NIH and the Knight Cancer Center at Oregon Health Sciences University. Our market position and product lines are strong, and we expect 2012 to be another growth year for FEI.”
Guidance for Q1-2012
For the first quarter of 2012, revenue is expected to be in the range of $210 million to $220 million, and bookings are expected to be at least $210 million. GAAP earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.60 to $0.65, assuming a 22% effective tax rate.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release provides financial measures for non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating expenses and operating income that exclude certain costs related to the company's estimate of costs associated with potentially settling certain patent litigation, costs related to early termination of a contract, impairment of certain intangible assets and tax benefits associated with an agreement with Dutch tax authorities applicable to a portion of the company's income. Those financial measures are therefore not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information that enhances management's and investor's ability to evaluate FEI's operating results in comparison to prior periods that did not include similar items.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be used in isolation and should not be considered a substitute for any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool, including that other companies may calculate similar non-GAAP financial measure differently, limiting their usefulness as a comparative tool. The company compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts included in or excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. The company further compensates for the limitations of its use of non-GAAP financial measures by presenting comparable GAAP measures more prominently. Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures included with this press release with our GAAP net income and net income per diluted share.

Safe Harbor Statement
This news release contains forward-looking statements that include statements regarding our guidance for revenue, earnings per share, tax rate and bookings for the first quarter of 2012 and our outlook for 2012. Forward-looking statements may also be identified by words and phrases that refer to future expectations, such as “guidance”, “guiding” , “expect”, “expects”, “are expected”, “will”, “projecting”, “estimate”, and other similar words and phrases. Factors that could affect these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the global economic environment; lower than expected customer orders and potential weakness of the Materials Science, Electronics and Life Sciences market segments; potential reduced governmental spending due to budget constraints and current uncertainty around global sovereign debt; limitations in our manufacturing capacity for certain products; problems in obtaining necessary product components in sufficient volumes on a timely basis from our supply chain; bankruptcy or insolvency of customers or suppliers; cyclical changes in the data storage and semiconductor industries, which are the major components of Electronics market revenue; fluctuations in foreign exchange, interest and tax rates; changes in tax rate and laws, accounting rules regarding taxes or agreements with tax authorities; the ongoing determination of the effectiveness of foreign exchange hedge transactions; reduced profitability due to failure to achieve or sustain margin improvement in service or product manufacturing; the relative mix of higher-margin and lower-margin products; risks associated with building and shipping a high percentage of the company's quarterly revenue in the last month of the quarter; customer requests to defer planned shipments; increased competition and new product offerings from competitors; lower average sales prices and reduced margins on some product sales due to increased competition; failure of the company's products and technology, including new products, to find acceptance with customers; inability to deploy products as expected or delays in shipping products due to technical problems or barriers; potential shipment or supply chain disruptions due to natural disasters or terrorist attacks; changes to or potential additional restructurings and reorganizations not presently anticipated; reduced sales due to geopolitical risks; changes in trade policies and tariff regulations; changes in the regulatory environment in the nations where we do business; additional selling, general and administrative or research and development expenses; additional costs related to future merger and acquisition activity; and failure of the company to achieve anticipated benefits of acquisitions and collaborations, including failure to achieve financial goals and integrate future acquisitions successfully. Please also refer to our Form 10-K, Forms 10-Q, Forms 8-K and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for additional information on these factors and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. FEI assumes no duty to update forward-looking statements.
