LTX-Credence Announces Third Quarter Results
MILPITAS, Calif., May 25, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LTX-Credence Corporation (Nasdaq:LTXC), a global provider of focused, cost-optimized ATE solutions, today announced financial results for its fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2011.
Sales for the quarter were $58,665,000, compared to the prior quarter sales of $52,549,000. Net income for the quarter was $23,621,000, or $0.47 per diluted share on a GAAP basis. Excluding the $15,000,000 merger-related break-up fee, $1,900,000 of merger-related expenses, $248,000 of restructuring expense and $1,490,000 of amortization of purchased intangible assets, net income for the quarter was $12,259,000, or $0.24 per diluted share on a non-GAAP basis.
Dave Tacelli, chief executive officer and president, commented, "Our third quarter product revenues grew 16% sequentially, driven by a rebound in the RF power amplifier, power management and applications specific market segments. In particular, we experienced a sharp ramp in demand for the PAx test system which was introduced in the prior quarter.
With the continued strong performance resulting from our business model, we are focused on driving top line growth through market share gains. During the quarter we had success in winning business from multiple new customers, effectively displacing the established incumbent competitor. These wins were in several of our target market segments and were the result of our ability to deliver compelling cost effective test solutions to our customers.
Our fourth quarter guidance reflects increased strength in our target markets as well as overall growth in the SoC test industry. The midpoint of revenue guidance represents approximately 11% growth over our third quarter results."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2011 Outlook
For the fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2011, revenue is expected to be in the range of $63 million to $67 million. Non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $0.25 to $0.29 per share, assuming 50.5 million fully diluted shares outstanding. The non-GAAP net income guidance excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets of approximately $1.5 million.

Information About Non-GAAP Measures

Management finds these non-GAAP measures to be useful for internal comparison to historical operating results as well as to the operating results of its competitors, and believes that this information is useful to investors for the same purposes.
