Synaptics Reports Results for Third Quarter Fiscal 2015


SAN JOSE, Calif., April 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptics (NASDAQ: SYNA), the leading developer of human interface solutions, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended March 28, 2015. 

Net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 grew 134% over the comparable quarter last year to $477.6 million. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 was $31.5 million, or $0.82 per diluted share.  Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 was $63.5 million, or $1.65 per diluted share.  Results for the period reflect consolidated results from the acquisition of Renesas SP Drivers, Inc. (RSP). See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. 

"Synaptics delivered record financial performance in the third quarter as we continued to execute across our expanding growth opportunities," stated Rick Bergman, President and CEO. "We see strong demand for our broad product portfolio, particularly as the momentum for fingerprint ID as well as touch and display driver integrated (TDDI) solutions continues to build. In addition, we continue to benefit from strength in our display driver business and efforts to expand the customer base and solutions set. We continue to elevate our position as the leading human interface provider and are poised to achieve our robust revenue growth forecast of over 75% as we close out the fiscal year."

Third Quarter 2015 Business Metrics

  • Revenue mix from mobile and PC products was approximately 87% and 13%, respectively. Fingerprint ID products have been classified according to type of device.
  • Revenue from mobile products was up 177% year-over-year to $417.4 million. Mobile products revenue includes all touchscreen, display driver, and applicable fingerprint ID products.
  • Revenue from PC products totaled $60.2 million, an increase of 12% year-over-year, and includes applicable fingerprint ID products.

Cash at March 31, 2015 was $381 million, an increase of $53 million from the prior quarter. The cash balance reflects the payment of $48 million during the quarter for the settlement of the working capital holdback liability related to the RSP acquisition. In the third quarter of fiscal 2015, cash flow from operations was $128 million. Year-to-date, the company has used $111 million to repurchase approximately 1.5 million shares of its common stock, or 4.2% of the total shares outstanding.

Kathy Bayless, CFO, added, "Considering our backlog of $248 million entering the June quarter, customer forecasts and the resulting expected product mix, we anticipate revenue to be in the range of $460 to $500 million, an increase of 46% to 59% over the prior year period. This outlook reflects positive trends on a sequential basis in our touch and fingerprint products, partially offset by product cycle trends in display driver products."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In evaluating its business, Synaptics considers and uses net income excluding share-based compensation, change in contingent consideration, and certain non-cash or non-recurring items as a supplemental measure of operating performance.  Net income excluding share-based compensation, change in contingent consideration, 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, change in contingent consideration, 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, change in contingent consideration, and certain non-cash or non-recurring items. Net income excluding share-based compensation, change in contingent consideration liability, 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.
