PMC-Sierra, Inc. (Nasdaq:PMCS), the premier Internet infrastructure
semiconductor solution provider, today reported results for the third
quarter ended September 27, 2009.
Net revenues in the third quarter of 2009 were $130.9 million, an
increase of 6 percent compared to $123.2 million in the second quarter
of 2009 and 6 percent lower than net revenues of $139.4 million reported
in the third quarter of 2008.
Net income in the third quarter of 2009 on a GAAP basis was $27.8
million (GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.12) compared with net
income of $7.8 million (GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.03) in the
second quarter of 2009 and net income of $4.5 million (GAAP diluted
earnings per share of $0.02) in the third quarter of 2008.
Non-GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2009 was $34.5 million
(non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.15), an increase of 16
percent compared to $29.7 million (non-GAAP diluted earnings per share
of $0.13) in the second quarter of 2009, and two cents per share above
the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.13 achieved in the third
quarter of 2008 when revenues reached $139.4 million.
"In the third quarter of 2009, we benefited from improved demand in our
Storage business, led by the continued ramp in our new 6Gb/s SAS
RAID-on-Chip device at H-P, as well as growth in our Microprocessor
business," said Greg Lang, president and chief executive officer of
PMC-Sierra. "This past quarter, we achieved the highest level of
non-GAAP operating income in the last nine years on revenue that was 6
percent below peak quarterly revenue last year."
Net income on a non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2009 excludes the
following items: (i) $5.1 million stock-based compensation expense; (ii)
$0.3 million recovery of previously accrued termination costs; (iii)
$9.8 million amortization of purchased intangible assets; (iv) $0.2
million restructuring costs; (v) $0.8 million of non-cash interest
expense for the accretion of the debt discount related to the senior
convertible notes; (vi) $1.0 million foreign exchange loss on foreign
tax liabilities; and (vii) $9.9 million income tax recovery.
For a full reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP net income,
please refer to the schedule included with this release. The Company
believes the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for
the purpose of financial analysis. Management uses the non-GAAP measures
internally to evaluate its in-period operating performance before gains,
losses and other charges that are considered by management to be outside
of the Company's core operating results. In addition, the measures are
used to plan for the Company's future periods. However, non-GAAP
measures are neither stated in accordance with, nor are they a
substitute for, GAAP measures.
The Company made the following announcements in Q3 2009:
We introduced the META 20G device that enables Carrier Ethernet Switch
and Router (CESR) equipment to seamlessly connect to emerging Metro
Optical Transport Networks (OTN). The META 20G enables a converged OTN
infrastructure across IP and optical equipment with unified end-to-end
network management. The device integrates Carrier Ethernet mapping and
framing of 10GE LAN and WAN, and OTN mapping of IP-services such as
Storage Area Networks (SAN) and Video protocols, while maintaining
Packet over SONET/SDH service. The META 20G is the latest addition to
PMC-Sierra's OTN product portfolio, which includes the HyPHY 20G and
HyPHY 10G for Packet Optical Transport Platforms (P-OTP) and
Multi-Service Provisioning Platforms (MSPP). The portfolio provides a
chipset solution for end-to-end integration of OTN across metro
networks.
In Q3, we announced the volume production of our maxSAS end-to-end
chipset for 6Gb/s SAS enterprise storage systems. PMC-Sierra's
complete 6Gb/s SAS chipsetwhich includes the Tachyon® SPC 8x6G SAS
protocol controller, SXP 36x6GSec 36-port and SXP 24x6GSec 24-port SAS
Expanders, and system management firmwareis shipping in volume to
multiple leading storage and server OEMs.
