CEO Commentary

 

“Veeco achieved significant milestones during 2014 as part of the transition back to growth and profitability,” commented John R. Peeler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “For the full year, revenue increased 18% to $393 million, bookings were up more than 50% to $510 million, and we returned to adjusted EBITDA profitability. We developed differentiated new products, lowered operating expenses and improved gross margins. We also completed the acquisition of Solid State Equipment LLC (now Veeco Precision Surface Processing or “PSP”) in the fourth quarter, improving access to high growth markets through complementary technology that will drive increased sales and profitability.”

 

“Fourth quarter results were within our guidance for revenue and above guidance for gross margin and adjusted EBITDA performance. Bookings totaled $196 million, the highest quarterly level since 2011. MOCVD booked $142 million, primarily due to orders for our next generation EPIK700TM MOCVD system. Data Storage bookings of $45 million were also the highest level since 2011, as customers invested in both capacity and technology.”

 

ALD Business Update

 

Veeco successfully demonstrated its FAST-ALDTM technology for flexible OLED encapsulation, but at the same time the incumbent deposition technology has progressed to satisfy the current market requirements. As a result, Veeco lowered the near term revenue forecasts for its ALD technology and took an asset impairment charge (goodwill, intangibles and property, plant and equipment) in the fourth quarter. The Company will lower its

 



 

spending rate in ALD, refocus R&D efforts on semiconductor and other applications, and continue to monitor the flexible OLED market opportunity.

 

Outlook

 

Veeco has begun shipping its new EPIK700 MOCVD system, which is a highly competitive product that improves LED customers’ productivity and yield and lowers their total cost of ownership. As is standard practice with new product introductions, accounting rules require deferral of revenue on initial system shipments. The Company expects to ship over $25 million of EPIK700 systems in the first quarter. The value of these shipments will largely appear as deferred revenue on the balance sheet, and, as a result, Veeco’s first quarter 2015 revenue is currently forecasted to be between $92 and $100 million. Loss per share is currently forecasted to be between ($0.59) to ($0.53) on a GAAP basis and ($0.13) to ($0.07) on a non-GAAP basis. Please refer to the attached financial table for more details.

 

Mr. Peeler added, “I am highly confident that 2015 will be another year of improved performance for Veeco, fueled by great new products targeted at growth opportunities in LED, power electronics and mobile devices. We have a strong team focused on keeping our organization streamlined and improving both gross margin and bottom line performance.”

This table includes financial measures adjusted for the impact of certain items; these financial measures are therefore not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These Non-GAAP financial measures consider exclusion of: share-based compensation expense; one-time charges relating to restructuring initiatives, non-cash asset impairments, certain other non-operating gains and losses, and acquisition-related items such as one-time transaction costs, non-cash amortization of acquired intangible assets, and the stepped-up cost of sales associated with the purchase accounting of acquired inventory.

 

These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. By excluding these items, non-GAAP financial measures are intended to facilitate meaningful comparisons to historical operating results, competitors’ operating results, and estimates made by securities analysts. Management is evaluated on key performance metrics including adjusted EBITDA, which is used to determine management incentive compensation as well as to forecast future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, similar non-GAAP financial measures have historically been reported to investors; the inclusion of comparable numbers provides consistency in financial reporting. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this news release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

This table includes financial measures adjusted for the impact of certain items; these financial measures are therefore not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These Non-GAAP financial measures consider exclusion of: share-based compensation expense; one-time charges relating to restructuring initiatives, non-cash asset impairments, certain other non-operating gains and losses, and acquisition-related items such as one-time transaction costs, non-cash amortization of acquired intangible assets, and the stepped-up cost of sales associated with the purchase accounting of acquired inventory.

 

These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. By excluding these items, non-GAAP financial measures are intended to facilitate meaningful comparisons to historical operating results, competitors’ operating results, and estimates made by securities analysts. Management is evaluated on key performance metrics including adjusted EBITDA, which is used to determine management incentive compensation as well as to forecast future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, similar non-GAAP financial measures have historically been reported to investors; the inclusion of comparable numbers provides consistency in financial reporting. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this news release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
