Synaptics Reports Results for Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2013

SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptics (NASDAQ: SYNA), a leading developer of human interface solutions, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended June 30, 2013. 

Net revenue for fiscal 2013 reached a record $663.6 million, an increase of 21% over net revenue of $548.2 million for fiscal 2012. Net income for fiscal 2013 of $98.9 million, or $2.89 per diluted share, was also a record and increased 83% over net income of $54.1 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, for fiscal 2012.  

Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2013 of $106.4 million, or $3.11 per diluted share, was also a record. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2012 were $78.6 million and $2.28, respectively. (See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results.)

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 was a record $230.2 million, an increase of 67% compared with $137.6 million for the comparable quarter last year. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 was a record $45.3 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, compared with net income of $12.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. 

Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 of $48.9 million, or $1.39 per diluted share, was also a record. Non-GAAP net income was $18.6 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. (See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.) 

"Our execution in fiscal 2013 was stellar as we successfully expanded our footprint at leading mobile customers, with our solutions included in many of the world's best-selling phones and tablets," stated Rick Bergman, President and CEO.  "Our record performance reflects our ability to innovate and lead in our markets based on the depth and breadth of our technology and the scale required to seamlessly deliver differentiated solutions to our growing global customer base." 

Fourth Quarter 2013 Business Metrics

  • Revenue mix from mobile and PC products was approximately 75% and 25%, respectively.
  • Revenue from mobile products totaled $173.2 million and was up 186% year-over-year.  Mobile products revenue includes all touchscreen and video display products.
  • Revenue from PC products totaled $57.0 million, a decrease of 26% year-over-year.
  • Gross margin was 50.0%, an increase of 390 basis points year-over-year.

Cash at June 30, 2013 was $355.3 million. Cash flow from operations for the fiscal year was $102.2 million; $46.3 million was used to repurchase 1.6 million shares of common stock, including 359,400 shares at approximately $42 per share repurchased during the fourth quarter, bringing fiscal 2013 repurchases to approximately 5% of shares outstanding.

Kathy Bayless, CFO, added, "Our performance in the June quarter reflected a steep initial ramp of new designs across multiple mobile customers.  Considering our backlog of approximately $96 million entering the typically back-end loaded September quarter, customer forecasts, and the resulting expected product mix, we anticipate revenue to be in the range of $210 million to $225 million for the first fiscal quarter, an increase of 65% to 77% on a year-over-year basis.  We expect the revenue mix from mobile and PC products to be similar to the preceding quarter."

Mr. Bergman added, "While our markets are dynamic, we believe that as the technology leader we are building a sustainable competitive advantage in touch.  As we look ahead to fiscal 2014, the declining PC market will continue to impact our growth rate, but overall we feel confident that we can achieve another year of very strong annual revenue growth at a level similar to our growth rate in fiscal 2013."

Synaptics also announced that in July, its board of directors increased and extended the authorization for stock repurchases by $100 million, for a total current authorization of $160 million available through October, 2015.

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. 

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking" statements about Synaptics, as that term is defined under the federal securities laws.  Synaptics intends such forward-looking statements to be subject to the safe harbor created by those laws.
