SILICON LABS BEATS EXPECTATIONS

Company Reports Solid Top Line Results and Strong Earnings —

 

AUSTIN, Texas — April 24, 2013 — Silicon Labs (Nasdaq: SLAB), a leader in high-performance, analog-intensive, mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs), today reported first quarter revenue of $145.4 million, a sequential decline of five percent and an increase of 16 percent compared to the same period a year ago.  GAAP diluted earnings per share were up five percent sequentially and an impressive 39 percent year over year. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share also increased by 37 percent compared to the first quarter of 2012.

 

Financial Highlights

 

First quarter revenue declined seasonally, but market share gains enabled significant year over year growth in all major product lines.  Gross margin declined sequentially due to product mix and on a GAAP-basis was 60.1 percent.  GAAP R&D investment increased to $37.6 million while GAAP SG&A expense decreased to $29.2 million. Resulting GAAP operating income declined to 14.2 percent. GAAP diluted earnings per share increased again to $0.46.

 

The following non-GAAP results exclude the impact of stock compensation and certain other items as set forth in the reconciliation table below. Gross margin declined sequentially to 60.3 percent for the quarter. Operating expenses increased modestly to 41.7 percent of revenue. R&D and SG&A remained relatively flat at $32.5 million and $28.0 million, respectively, due to disciplined spending. Operating income for the quarter was 18.6 percent. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were 59 cents.

 

Business Highlights

 

The company was able to grow all of its major product lines year over year through increased

 



 

market share and expansion into new markets. The Broadcast products were up 7 percent sequentially, due to strong growth in both the video and audio products. The company secured record design wins with its market leading video products and grew sequentially as customers ramped up for the new model year.

 

In the first quarter, the broad-based products were up 15 percent year over year.   A 10 percent sequential decline was due primarily to the decline of the touch controller business in handsets. Microcontrollers were down seasonally, and along with the timing and power products were impacted by softness in industrial markets.  However, the company secured a record number of broad-based design wins driving confidence in the long-term prospects for continued market share gains.

 

“Our strategic products are all growing,” said Tyson Tuttle, president and CEO of Silicon Labs.  “We expect our historical headwinds will be a much smaller percent of our revenue as we exit the second quarter. We’re also demonstrating good operating expense control and have a very active R&D pipeline — the right ingredients for another growth year.”

 

Allowing for accelerated declines in legacy handset-related products, the company expects revenue for the second quarter to be $140 to $146 million.
