CSP Inc. Reports Second-Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results
Board Raises Quarterly Dividend to $0.10 Per Share From $0.03 Per Share
BILLERICA, MA, May 8, 2013 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of IT solutions, systems integration services and dense cluster computing systems, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 ended March 31, 2013.
The Company also announced that its board of directors has voted to increase its quarterly dividend to $0.10 per share from $0.03 per share beginning with the third -quarter dividend payment. The dividend is payable June 3, 2013 to shareholders of record May 24, 2013.
Management Comments
“We performed well in the second quarter with revenues increasing 36% and net income up 67%,” said Victor Dellovo, CSP Inc. president and chief executive officer. “All of our top and bottom-line growth came from the Service and Systems Integration segment as our Systems segment continues to experience significant market headwinds.”
“At our Systems segment, revenue was up from the year-ago quarter also up from the sequential first fiscal quarter due to strong sales to international customers,” said Dellovo. “Gross margin in the quarter was significantly lower year over year as we received $2.0 million in royalty revenue from Lockheed Martin related to the E-2D aircraft a year ago and recorded no royalty revenue this year. The sequester and continuing resolution is having a negative effect on our Systems segment performance and we expect that to continue in the near term. Multicomputer parts for Lot 1 of full-rate production for the E-2D are on order and we expect to ship them during the current fiscal year.”
“Our Service and Systems Integration segment turned in another excellent quarter, with revenues increasing 39% year over year,” added Dellovo. “Sales were driven by strong demand at our US subsidiary as well as by solid growth in Germany. During the past several quarters we have been enhancing our marketing efforts, working with manufacturers to obtain sales leads, and adding to our sales force. As a result, a significant portion of our growth this quarter came from new customers.”
“Looking toward the second half of the year, while we expect a difficult comparison with fiscal 2012 at our Systems segment, Service and Systems Integration continues to perform very well and is demonstrating the strength of our business diversity. We will continue to execute on our growth strategy, including cross sell-selling between our segments and within MODCOMP, which we believe provides us with long-term opportunities for profitable growth,” concluded Dellovo.
Financial Results
For the second quarter of fiscal 2013, revenue increased 36% year over year to $25.8 million. For the first six months of fiscal 2013, revenue increased 16% year over year to $46.7 million. Foreign exchange had
Exhibit 99.1
no effect on revenue for the three-month period and a negative $200,000 effect on revenue for the six-month period.
Gross margin for the second quarter decreased to 22% from 25% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily due to a lower mix of sales from the Systems business, including reduced royalty revenues. Gross margin for the first half of fiscal 2013 was 21% compared with 24% in the prior-year period.
Net income for the second quarter increased to $740,000, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared with net income of $442,000, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. Net income for the first six months of fiscal 2013 was $855,000, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with $903,000, or $0.26 per diluted share in the first six months of fiscal 2012.
Cash and short-term investments decreased from $20.5 million at fiscal year end to $15.3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2013, due primarily to higher accounts receivable. The increase in accounts receivable is the result of a greater mix of revenues from large customers with extended payment terms. The Company also paid out about $700,000 in dividends in the first half of the year. CSP's cash position may vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to the high working capital requirements needed to fund large projects at both its Systems and its Services and Systems Integration segments.
