Third Quarter Financial Summary
Revenue was $44.3 million for the third quarter, an increase of 10% compared to the third quarter of 2013 and an 8% increase compared to the second quarter of 2014. Third quarter product revenues of $16.9 million were 17% lower than the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a 24% year-over-year decrease in guidance & stabilization hardware sales. Service revenues in the third quarter were $27.4 million, an increase of 38% compared to the third quarter of 2013 and a 37% increase compared to the second quarter of 2014. Airtime service revenues, which include mini-VSAT Broadband airtime revenues, were up 20% year-over-year and 9% sequentially. Total value added services, which represent all other service revenues excluding airtime, were up 75% in the current quarter compared to the third quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP revenue, which included $0.6 million excluded from Videotel’s revenue due to the application of purchase accounting, was $44.9 million in the current quarter.
For the third quarter, net income on a GAAP basis was $0.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share, while non-GAAP net income, which reflects the non-GAAP revenue noted above, expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and the related tax impact, as well as discrete tax items, was $1.0 million or $0.07 per diluted share. During the same period last year, the company reported GAAP and non-GAAP net income of $1.4 million, or $0.09 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2013. The acquisition of Videotel on July 2, 2014 resulted in an additional charge for intangibles amortization. Included in adjusted EBITDA was $1.5 million and $0.5 million related to the amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Nine-month Financial Summary
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, revenue was $122.2 million, down 1% compared to $123.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Product revenues for the 2014 nine-month period of $55.9 million were 22% lower than the comparable period last year, which was driven primarily by a 34% decline in guidance & stabilization product revenues year-over-year. Service revenues for the 2014 nine-month period of $66.3 million were 28% higher than the comparable period last year. Airtime service revenues in the 2014 nine-month period increased 24% year-over-year while value added services revenues increased 37%, reflecting the addition of Videotel and a full nine-month contribution of KVH Media Group, offset by a decline in services to support the Saudi Arabian National Guard program which was completed this quarter.
The company reported a GAAP net loss of $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, or $(0.06) per share. The company recorded non-GAAP net income of $0.7 million or $0.05 per diluted share. During the same period last year, the company reported a GAAP net income of $4.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of $5.6 million, or $0.37 per share.
Speaking about the company’s financial performance, Peter Rendall, KVH’s chief financial officer, said, “Service revenues, in particular subscription-based service revenues, now represent the majority of our total revenues. In the
-more-
third quarter of 2014, our service revenues generated a gross profit margin of 46%, compared to 40% in the comparable period last year. This increase was driven, in part, by the impact of recording a smaller amount of low margin installation and project management service revenues related to the Saudi Arabian National Guard project. The gross profit margin on hardware revenues in the current quarter was 36% compared to 42% a year earlier and reflects the impact that product mix can have on our hardware margins. The net impact of these factors was that the company’s overall gross profit margin for the third quarter was 42% compared to 41% a year ago.”
Fourth Quarter 2014 Outlook
The company reaffirms its prior guidance for the fourth quarter as follows:
• | GAAP revenue is projected to be in the range of $47 million to $51 million. For the full year, this would equate to $169 million to $173 million. |
• | GAAP net income per share is projected to be in the range of $0.10 to $0.15. For the full year, this would equate to $0.04 to $0.09. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Provided in this release is non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA, as a supplement to the condensed financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing financial results to assess operational performance and liquidity. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. KVH believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. KVH believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used in making operating decisions and because its investors and analysts use them to help assess the health of its business.
Some limitations of non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA include the following:
• | Non-GAAP revenue includes an amount that was excluded from revenue as a result of the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions. |
-more-
• | Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses, and adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions. |
• | Non-GAAP net income (loss) and diluted EPS excludes acquisition-related expenses, net of tax, discrete tax items and adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions, net of tax. |
Other companies, including companies in KVH’s industry, may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently or not at all, which will reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures together with other financial performance measures, including revenue, net income, diluted net income (loss) per share, and our other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. See the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations below for further details.
