Intermolecular Announces Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

 

Collaborative Development Programs Broaden and Drive Rapid Development of IP

 

SAN JOSE, Calif., October 25, 2012 — Intermolecular, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMI)—accelerating research and development (R&D) for semiconductor and clean energy industries—today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

 

Revenue for the third quarter of 2012 was $16.5 million, representing 11% growth on a year-over-year basis. Collaborative development program (or CDP) revenue was $12.5 million for the quarter, compared to $10.3 million in the prior year, reflecting the ramp of the Company’s development program for advanced logic semiconductors, a performance incentive resulting from the successful completion of a micro-CDP program, and the initiation of new customer engagements for clean energy applications. Licensing and royalty revenue was $3.2 million, compared to $3.8 million for the same period a year ago. Workflow product revenue of $0.8 million included sales of elements of the Company’s High Productivity Combinatorial (HPC) platform and Informatics. This compared to $0.7 million reported in the year-ago period.

 

For the third quarter of 2012, the Company reported a net loss of $(0.1) million or $(0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $(2.8) million, or $(0.49) per share for the third quarter of 2011. Net loss for the third quarter of 2011 included a $(1.6) million expense associated with the accretion of convertible, redeemable preferred shares, equivalent to $(0.27) per share.

 

Intermolecular reports revenue, costs of revenue, gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share in accordance with GAAP and additionally on a non-GAAP basis.  A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as well as a description of the items excluded from the non-GAAP measures, is included in the financial statements portion of this press release.

 

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $0.8 million or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2011.

 

“We are pleased with the technical, operational and financial performance the Company achieved in the third quarter,” said David Lazovsky, President and CEO of Intermolecular. “Key milestones in the third quarter include IBM leveraging our HPC Platform to benefit its technology development alliance with GLOBALFOUNDRIES, and the rapid development of PV intellectual property with First Solar that exceeded customer expectations.  Our Collaborative Development Programs continue to make technical progress, which improves visibility on IP licensing and royalty growth in our business.”

Cash flows from operations for the third quarter of 2012 were $0.2 million, and represented the third consecutive quarter of positive cash flows from operations. The Company invested $1.9 million in capital expenditures in the third quarter, and ended the quarter with cash and investments of $80.4 million.

 

Outlook for Fourth Quarter 2012

 

The following statements are based on current expectations for the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

·                  The Company projects revenue in the range of $16.5 to $17.0 million.  This revenue projection includes $13.8 million from reported backlog as of September 30, 2012.

·                  Non-GAAP net income, which excludes stock-based compensation expense, is projected between a non-GAAP net income of $1.0 million to a non-GAAP net income of $1.5 million or between $0.02 to $0.03 per share, on approximately 48 million diluted shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement the financial data presented on a GAAP basis, we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and, for certain 2011 periods, a common stock warrant charge against revenue and preferred stock warrant and derivative charges. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not serve as an alternative to GAAP and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies. These results should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. We believe that our non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations because the non-GAAP measures exclude charges that management considers to be outside of Intermolecular’s core operating results. We believe that the non-GAAP measures of revenue, cost of revenue, gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share, viewed in combination with our financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective and a more meaningful understanding of our ongoing operating performance. In addition, management uses these non-GAAP measures to review and assess the financial performance of the Company, to determine executive officer incentive compensation and to plan and forecast performance in future periods.
