·  Record quarterly Non-GAAP revenue of $271 million, up 23 percent year-over-year

·  GAAP gross margin of 74.4 percent and non-GAAP gross margin of 77.0 percent
·  Fully diluted GAAP EPS of $0.11
·  Fully diluted non-GAAP EPS of $0.26, $0.01 below mid-point of guidance
·  EBITDA of $22 million, or $0.18 per share for a third quarter

National Instruments (Nasdaq: NATI) today announced Q3 revenue of $255 million, a quarterly record and a 16 percent increase from Q3 2010.  Non-GAAP revenue for Q3 was $271 million, up 23 percent from Q3 2010.  In Q3, the Company’s orders greater than $20,000 grew 31 percent year-over-year, and the average order size reached a new all-time record of approximately $4,600.
 
For Q3, the Company had two adjustments between GAAP and non-GAAP revenue.  The first is for $3 million and relates to the acquisition accounting for deferred revenue for our AWR acquisition.  This adjustment was included in the guidance we gave for Q3. The second adjustment was not included in our guidance and is for a $13 million accrual which was recorded in Q3 and is related to a dispute concerning our GSA contract with the U.S Government.  The Company terminated this contract with the GSA effective May 2011.  This accrual represents the amount of the loss contingency that is reasonably estimable at this time.   This dispute was discussed in our form 10-Qs filed in both April 2011 and July 2011.
 
Net income for Q3 was $12.7 million, with fully diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.11, and non-GAAP net income was $31.0 million, with non-GAAP fully diluted EPS of $0.26.
 
In Q3, GAAP gross margin decreased 210 basis points year-over-year to 74.4 percent. Non-GAAP gross margin remained flat at 77.0 percent.
 
The company’s non-GAAP results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition accounting for deferred revenue, adjustments related to our contract dispute with the GSA and acquisition related transaction costs. Reconciliations of the company’s GAAP and non-GAAP results are included as part of this news release.
 
“Over the last few years we have invested significantly in building out our capabilities to serve our larger customers, which enabled the significant progress we saw in Q3,” said Dr. James Truchard, co-founder, president and CEO.  “This ability to grow our larger orders will be key to achieving our goal of $2 billion in revenue by 2016.”
 
NI graphical system design product sales were up 24 percent year-over-year, and NI instrument control product sales were up 1 percent year-over-year in Q3. Geographically, revenue in U.S. dollar terms for Q3 2011 compared to Q3 2010 was up 2 percent in the Americas, up 25 percent in Europe and up 28 percent in Asia. In local currency terms, revenue was up 14 percent in Europe and up 19 percent in Asia. In Q3, revenue in the Americas was negatively impacted by the $13 million accrual related to our GSA contract.

As of September 30, 2011, NI had $336 million in cash and short-term investments. The National Instruments Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share on the company’s common stock payable on November 28 to stockholders of record on November 7.
 
“We have exercised good discipline this year in matching expense growth to revenue growth, with non-GAAP revenue up 22% and non-GAAP operating expenses up by 23%, year to date, and delivering a record $120 million in non-GAAP operating income for the first nine months.” said Davern. “While we are cautious about the direction of the industrial economy over the coming quarters, we are confident our investments will significantly advance our long-term position in the industries we serve.”
 
Guidance for Q4 2011
 
With the Global PMI dipping below 50 in September, we did see the significant decline in Q3 that we had anticipated when giving guidance.  Looking forward, we anticipate further weakness in the industrial economy in Q4 and as a result, we are taking a conservative approach to guidance for Q4, guiding to a midpoint of 8% sequential growth, below the historical seasonal average.
 
 NI expects revenue for Q4 to be between $280 million and $300 million, an increase of between 12 and 20 percent over Q4 2010. Due to the impact of the acquisition accounting for the AWR transaction, we are also including guidance for non-GAAP revenue to reflect the write-down of AWR’s historical deferred revenue to the fair value recorded as a result of acquisition accounting. As a result, we expect non-GAAP revenue to be in the range of $282 and $302 million, an increase of between 13 percent and 21 percent over Q4 2010.
 
Given that we are closing out our 2011 investment plan, we expect to see a very modest increase in operating expenses in Q4.  Looking out to 2012, our objective will be to grow revenues faster than expenses and we believe we will be able to achieve this goal if we are able to deliver year-over-year revenue growth in the high single digit range or better.
 
The company expects fully diluted EPS will be in the range of $0.22 to $0.30 for Q4, with non-GAAP fully diluted EPS expected to be in the range of $0.29 to $0.37.  Please remember that in Q4 the GAAP to Non-GAAP adjustments will include a $0.03 per share adjustment related to the acquisitions of AWR and Phase Matrix.
 
Non-GAAP Presentation
 
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with GAAP, NI discloses certain non-GAAP operating results and non-GAAP information that exclude certain charges. In this news release, the company has presented its net sales, gross profit, operating expenses, operating income, income before income taxes, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, net income and basic and fully diluted EPS for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. We are also providing guidance on our non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP fully diluted EPS.  When presenting non-GAAP information, the company includes a reconciliation of the non-GAAP results to the GAAP results. Management believes that including the non-GAAP results assists investors in assessing the company’s operational performance and its performance relative to its competitors. The company presents these non-GAAP results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP, and these results should not be regarded as a substitute for GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability and performance of its business and does not consider stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition accounting for deferred revenue, adjustments related to our contract dispute with the GSA and acquisition related transaction costs in managing its operations. Specifically, management uses non-GAAP measures to plan and forecast future periods, to establish operational goals, to compare with its business plan and individual operating budgets, to measure management performance for the purposes of executive compensation including payments to be made under bonus plans, to assist the public in measuring the company’s performance relative to the company’s long-term public performance goals, to allocate resources and, relative to the company’s historical financial performance, to enable comparability between periods. Management also considers such non-GAAP results to be an important supplemental measure of its performance.

This news release also discloses the company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and EBITDA diluted EPS for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. The company also believes that including the EBITDA results assists investors in assessing the company’s operational performance relative to its competitors. A reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA diluted EPS to GAAP net income and GAAP diluted EPS is included with this news release.
