Synaptics Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-end Financial Results
Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 was $25.8 million, a 19.3% increase compared to $21.6 million for the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. Pro forma net income for the fourth quarter, excluding non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangibles and deferred stock-based compensation, was $2.7 million, or $0.12 per basic share and $0.10 per diluted share. This compares to pro forma net income of $923,000, or $0.14 per basic share and $0.05 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Actual (GAAP) net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 was $2.6 million, or $0.11 per basic share and $0.10 per diluted share. This compares with actual net income of $600,000, or $0.09 per basic share and $0.03 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. Earnings per diluted share for the current fiscal quarter include the impact of an additional 6.0 million weighted average shares outstanding primarily resulting from the Company’s January 2002 initial public offering.
Net revenue for the year ended June 30, 2002 was $100.2 million compared to net revenue of $73.7 million for the prior fiscal year. Pro forma net income, excluding non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangibles and deferred stock-based compensation, was $10.0 million, or $0.74 per basic share and $0.44 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2002 compared to pro forma net income of $2.2 million, or $0.36 per basic share and $0.11 per diluted share, for the prior fiscal year.
Actual net income for the year ended June 30, 2002 was $9.4 million, or $0.70 per basic share and $0.42 per diluted share. This compares with actual net income of $810,000, or $0.13 per basic share and $0.04 per diluted share, in the prior fiscal year. Earnings per diluted share for fiscal year 2002 include the impact of an additional 2.7 million weighted average shares outstanding primarily resulting from the Company’s January 2002 initial public offering.
“We are pleased to report strong fourth quarter and annual results, marking good progress in our core notebook market and encouraging design activity in new markets,” stated Francis Lee, President and CEO of Synaptics. “Looking forward, the overall economic weakness and resulting softness in both consumer and corporate spending has led to excess channel inventory and continued near-term uncertainty in the PC industry. We are therefore anticipating a sequential decline in revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2003 in the range of 10 to 15 percent. While visibility is limited, we expect revenues to be up sequentially in the seasonally stronger December quarter. We continue to execute on our business model in a difficult market and believe that we have gained share in the past year based on the value proposition we offer our OEM customers. Our recent design wins in the notebook market and our ongoing progress with new market initiatives gives us continued confidence in Synaptics’ prospects for long-term growth.”
