Synaptics Reports Record Revenue in Third Quarter Fiscal 2013

SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptics (NASDAQ: SYNA), a leading developer of human interface solutions, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended March 31, 2013. 

Net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $163.3 million, an increase of 24% compared with $131.7 million for the comparable quarter last year.  Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $36.4 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, and reflects the benefit of a non-recurring, non-cash tax item of $15.8 million, compared with net income of $11.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. 

Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $27.0 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $17.9 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2012.  (See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.) 

"We are extremely pleased to report record revenue during the third quarter," stated Rick Bergman, President and CEO.  "The continued adoption of our solutions by a broad base of key customers is a testament to the strength of our technology leadership and has enabled us to diversify our business through increased penetration of the rapidly growing mobile touchscreen market.  As the market leader in capacitive touch solutions, we believe Synaptics is well-positioned to drive long-term, profitable growth."

Third Quarter 2013 Business Metrics

  • Revenue mix from mobile and PC products was approximately 64% and 36%, respectively.
  • Revenue from mobile products totaled $104.7 million and was up 57.2% year-over-year.  Mobile products revenue includes all touchscreen and video display products.
  • Revenue from PC products totaled $58.6 million, a decrease of 9.9% year-over-year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In evaluating its business, Synaptics considers and uses net income excluding share-based compensation and certain non-cash or non-recurring items as a supplemental measure of operating performance.  Net income excluding share-based compensation and certain non-cash or non-recurring items is not a measurement of the company's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income. The company presents net income excluding share-based compensation and certain non-cash or non-recurring items because it considers it an important supplemental measure of its performance. The company believes this measure facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences in net income caused by the existence and timing of share-based compensation charges and certain non-cash or non-recurring items. Net income excluding share-based compensation and certain non-cash or non-recurring items has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company's GAAP net income.  The principal limitations of this measure are that it does not reflect the company's actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its net income and net income per share.
