Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $13.0 million, a 94.1% increase compared to $6.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

 

“We are very pleased with our recent accomplishments. We achieved excellent financial results in our first fiscal quarter of 2011 including record revenues and strong gross margins, and successfully completed our IPO in December 2010,” said Trung Doan, Chairman and CEO of SemiLEDs. “The LED lighting market remains strong particularly within Asia and we are well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity both through our Taiwan operations and China SemiLEDs.”

 

GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $3.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $0.4 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company recorded a foreign currency transaction loss of $0.6 million in the quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $3.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.4 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

Cash flow from operations was $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
