Westell Technologies Reports Fourth Quarter Revenue of $19 million
Westell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading provider of
in-building wireless, intelligent site management, cell site
optimization, and outside plant solutions, today announced results for
its fiscal 2015 fourth quarter ended March 31, 2015.
Consolidated revenue was $18.6 million, consisting of $7.1 million from
the In-Building Wireless (IBW) segment and $11.5 million from the
Communication Solutions Group (CSG) segment.
"Despite conservative capital spending by the major North American
wireless service providers, our fiscal fourth quarter performance
experienced steady improvement in order momentum and a solid increase in
overall revenue," said Tom Gruenwald, CEO of Westell Technologies.
"Orders are off to a good start so far in the fiscal first quarter and
we are continuing our relentless focus on improving profit margins and
cash flow. We are also preparing for the release of a new IBW product
that we plan on announcing by quarter-end."
On a GAAP basis, the Company recorded a net loss in the quarter ended
March 31, 2015 of $13.0 million or $0.22 per share, compared to a net
loss of $27.5 million or $0.46 per share in the quarter ended December
31, 2014. The current quarter GAAP results included $5.3 million of
charges, consisting of $3.2 million for the previously announced
restructuring and $2.1 million related to the departure of the former
CEO. The prior quarter GAAP results included a $20.5 million non-cash
charge for goodwill impairment.
On a non-GAAP basis, the Company recorded a net loss of $5.5 million or
$0.09 per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $4.8 million or
$0.08 per share in the prior quarter. The larger sequential non-GAAP net
loss was primarily due to an unusually low gross margin in the current
quarter, primarily as a result of higher-than-normal excess and obsolete
inventory costs. Please refer to the schedule at the end of this release
for a complete GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation and other information
related to non-GAAP measures.
Cash and short-term investments were $37.9 million at March 31, 2015,
compared to $42.9 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease was driven
by the net loss and employee severance payments.
In-Building Wireless (IBW) Segment
IBW segment revenue was $7.1 million in the quarter ended March 31,
2015, up 31% from $5.4 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
The sequential revenue increase was driven by record quarterly sales of
our active DAS conditioner or UDIT (Universal DAS Interface Tray). Gross
profit was $1.6 million and gross margin was 23.0%, compared to $1.9
million and 35.3% in the prior quarter. Gross profit and gross margin
decreased largely as a result of higher excess and obsolete inventory
costs. IBW R&D expenses were $2.3 million in both the current and prior
quarter. As a result, IBW segment loss was $0.7 million, compared to
$0.4 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
Communication Solutions Group (CSG) Segment
CSG segment revenue was $11.5 million in the quarter ended March 31,
2015, up 34% from $8.6 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
The sequential revenue increase was driven by higher sales of tower
mounted amplifiers (TMAs) and system integration projects, partly offset
by lower intelligent site management (ISM) revenue. Gross profit was
$3.0 million and gross margin was 26.4% compared to $2.5 million and
28.8% in the prior quarter. Gross profit increased due to the higher
revenue while gross margin decreased due primarily to a less favorable
mix. CSG R&D expenses were $1.9 million, compared to $2.0 million in the
prior quarter. As a result, CSG segment profit was $1.1 million,
compared to $0.5 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company voluntarily
changed its method of accounting for the classification of costs
related to shipping and handling to cost of revenue. In previous
periods, these shipping and handling costs were included as a
component of sales and marketing expenses. Previously reported
amounts for fiscal year 2014 have been restated to reflect this
change. The Company filed the preferability letter regarding the
change in accounting principle as an exhibit to its June 30, 2014
Form 10-Q.

|
The results of operations relating to CSI are included in the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements from the March 1, 2014,
acquisition date. Certain amounts have been adjusted to reflect
measurement period adjustments related to the CSI acquisition.
|
|
|
|
(3)
|
|
The Company recorded restructuring expense primarily relating to
abandonment of excess office space at its headquarters.
|
|
|
|
(4)
|
|
The Company recorded a non-cash charge of $31.1 million to record an
impairment of the full carrying amount of goodwill.
|

|
|
In fiscal year 2014, the Company acquired Kentrox and CSI in stock
transactions. Deferred tax liabilities of $8.8 million resulted from
the acquisitions relating primarily to acquired intangible assets.
The Company's anticipated ability to realize deferred tax assets
from the reversal of these deferred tax liabilities resulted in a
partial reversal of valuation allowance related to the Company's
deferred tax assets. Income tax expense, excluding the impact of the
acquisitions noted above, was primarily from state income tax
expense in non-unitary states and state taxes based on gross margin,
not taxable income.

The Company recorded restructuring expense primarily relating to
abandonment of excess office space at its headquarters.
|
(2)
|
|
Certain amounts have been adjusted to reflect measurement period
adjustments related to the CSI acquisition.
|
(3)
|
|
In fiscal year 2014, the Company acquired Kentrox and CSI in stock
transactions. Deferred tax liabilities of $8.8 million resulted from
the acquisitions relating primarily to acquired intangible assets.
The Company's anticipated ability to realize deferred tax assets
from the reversal of these deferred tax liabilities resulted in a
partial reversal of valuation allowance related to the Company's
deferred tax assets. Income tax expense, excluding the impact of the
acquisitions noted above, was primarily from state income tax
expense in non-unitary states and state taxes based on gross margin,
not taxable income.

The Company prepares its financial statements based on U.S. Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The schedules above reconcile the
Company's GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
measure. Management believes that non-GAAP operating results provide
meaningful supplemental information to investors. Management also
believes that the non-GAAP results reflect the Company's core
performance and facilitates comparisons across reporting periods. The
Company uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial
results. Non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the
Company's GAAP results.

On April 1, 2013 and on March 1, 2014, the Company purchased Kentrox
and CSI, respectively, which required the step-up of certain assets
to fair value, which resulted in cost that will not recur once those
assets have fully settled. The adjustments remove the increased
costs associated with the third-party sales of inventory that was
stepped-up and the step-down on acquired deferred revenue that was
recognized in the periods presented.

Amortization of intangibles is a non-cash expense arising from the
acquisition of intangible assets.

In fiscal year 2014, the Company acquired Kentrox and CSI in stock
transactions. Deferred tax liabilities of $8.8 million resulted from
the acquisitions relating primarily to acquired intangible assets.
The Company's anticipated ability to realize deferred tax assets
from the reversal of these deferred tax liabilities resulted in a
partial reversal of valuation allowance related to the Company's
deferred tax assets. The fiscal year 2014 adjustment removes the
related income tax benefit. The Company is in a full valuation
allowance in fiscal year 2014. The fiscal year 2013 adjustment
removes the tax benefits recorded in fiscal year 2013 to reflect the
tax result had the Company been in a full valuation allowance in
fiscal year 2013.
