Audience Announces Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – July 31, 2014 – Audience, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADNC), the leader in advanced voice and audio processing for mobile devices, today announced its second quarter 2014 financial results.

Revenue for the second quarter of 2014 was $37.5 million, compared with $45.3 million for the same period in 2013. As reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), second quarter 2014 net loss was ($4.4) million, or ($0.20) per diluted share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 22.5 million. This compares with GAAP net income of $2.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 23.2 million, for the same period in 2013. Gross margin on a GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2014 was 54.6% of revenue, compared to 59.0% of revenue for the same period in 2013.

Non-GAAP net loss, as defined below, for the second quarter of 2014 was ($2.2) million, or ($0.10) per diluted share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 22.5 million. This compares with non-GAAP net income of $5.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 23.2 million, for the same period in 2013. Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2014 was 54.9% of revenue, compared to 59.2% of revenue for the same period in 2013.

“We were pleased to announce the acquisition of Sensor Platforms, Inc. in this quarter and have moved quickly to integrate the engineering teams after closing to allow us to rapidly scale our capabilities in multi-sensory processing,” said Peter Santos, president and chief executive officer, Audience. “We believe the resulting fusion of voice, motion, context awareness and analytics will allow Audience to deliver hardware and software solutions for seamless natural user experiences that transform the way consumers engage with devices.”

“Operationally, we executed well in the second quarter as our financial results met or exceeded our guidance for the second quarter,” said Kevin Palatnik, chief financial officer. “Going forward, with near-term expected softness with certain high end smartphones, we plan to implement expense reductions in excess of 15% of current run rate during Q3.”

Business Outlook

For the third quarter of 2014, Audience expects total revenue to be in the range of $25 to $28 million. Third quarter GAAP gross margin is expected to be in the range of 51.5% to 54.5%. Third quarter GAAP net loss, which includes $2.2 million of expected stock-based compensation expense, is expected to be in the range of ($11.0) to ($12.5) million, or ($0.48) to ($0.54) per diluted share on approximately 22.8 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Third quarter non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be in the range of 52% to 54%. Third quarter non-GAAP net loss is expected to be in the range of ($8.5) to ($10.0) million, or ($0.37) to ($0.43) per share on a diluted basis.

The foregoing statements regarding the company’s business outlook reflect the acquisition of Sensor Platforms, Inc. in July 2014.

A schedule showing a reconciliation of the business outlook from GAAP diluted net loss per share to non-GAAP diluted net loss per share is included with this release.

The Quiet Period will extend until the day when Audience’s Third Quarter 2014 Earnings Release is published, which is currently scheduled to be October 30, 2014.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Audience prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the United States (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures, such as gross margin, net income and earnings per share information for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and similar periods from the prior year included in this press release are different from those otherwise presented under GAAP. The following are explanations of each type of adjustment that we incorporate into non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense relates to equity incentive awards granted to our employees, directors and consultants under GAAP. Stock-based compensation expense has been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense for Audience. While we include the dilutive impact of such equity awards in weighted average shares outstanding, the expense associated with stock-based awards reflects a non-cash charge that we exclude from non-GAAP net income.

On June 5, 2012, Audience entered into a lease agreement for its future corporate headquarters facility in Mountain View, California. Pursuant to the lease agreement, the lease falls under “build-to-suit” accounting treatment and therefore, in accordance with accounting for the effect of lessee involvement in asset construction, the company is considered to be the owner of the real estate project during the construction period. As such, Audience recorded an asset for construction in progress for incurred construction costs, and a liability for those costs that are not funded by the company. Additionally, the rent costs associated with the ground lease during construction was recorded to the income statement. This rent cost is a non-cash charge that the company excluded from its non-GAAP net income. The construction was completed and the lease commenced October 1, 2013. Upon lease commencement, “build-to-suit” accounting treatment was terminated. The company concluded that the lease qualifies for sale-leaseback accounting treatment and that the lease is to be recorded as an operating lease.

On July 11, 2014, Audience completed its acquisition of Sensor Platforms, Inc. Certain non-recurring acquisition costs have been excluded from non-GAAP net income.

Non-GAAP financial information is adjusted for a tax rate equal to our three year annual estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income. Our three year estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income is determined annually and may be adjusted during the year to take into account events or trends that we believe materially impact the estimated annual rate including, but not limited to, significant changes resulting from tax legislation, material changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses and other significant events. Due to the differences in the tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to our estimated annual tax rates, our estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from our GAAP tax rate and from our actual tax liabilities.

Audience has provided these measures in addition to GAAP financial results because management believes these non-GAAP measures help provide a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and annual growth rates that are not influenced by certain non-cash charges and therefore are helpful in understanding Audience’s underlying operating results. These non-GAAP measures are some of the primary measures Audience’s management uses for planning and forecasting. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to information provided by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP to non-GAAP results are presented at the end of this press release.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Ltd., for a substantial portion of our revenue; weak demand for high end smart phones and the impact on our business; our need to maintain and expand our existing relationships with our OEMs, including Samsung and leading Chinese OEMs, and to establish relationships with new OEMs in order to maintain and increase our revenue; our ability to sustain profitable operations due to our history of losses and accumulated deficit; quarterly fluctuations in our results due to factors such as the timing of OEM product launches and customer purchasing behavior in light of anticipated mobile phone launches; our assessments of whether we have excess or obsolete inventory; increasing competition and new entrants in the market for our products; our need to diversify our sources of revenue; our ability to successfully integrate Sensor Platforms’ team and technology; our ability to enter new end user product markets, as well as new geographic markets; pressure on the average selling prices for our products; our lengthy sales cycle and the lack of certainty as to whether any given OEM’s products will achieve market acceptance; our OEMs’ lengthy and expensive process to qualify our products; our ability to develop new or enhanced products in a timely manner that achieve market acceptance; our reliance on third parties to manufacture, assemble and test our products; increased defects that may be present in our products as we scale our manufacturing processes; the impact of future intellectual
