NETGEAR® Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results
SAN JOSE, California, July 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQGM: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 1, 2012.
Net revenue for the second quarter ended July 1, 2012 was $320.7 million, as compared to $291.2 million for the second quarter ended July 3, 2011, and $325.6 million in the first quarter ended April 1, 2012. Net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the second quarter of 2012 was $21.5 million, or $0.56 per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net income of $20.6 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2011, and GAAP net income of $25.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2012.
Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2012 was 29.9%, as compared to 31.7% in the year ago comparable quarter, and 31.0% in the first quarter of 2012. Non-GAAP operating margin was 11.0% in the second quarter of 2012, as compared to 11.9% in the second quarter of 2011, and 12.5% in the first quarter of 2012. Non-GAAP net income was $0.64 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2012, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.65 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011, and non-GAAP net income of $0.73 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2012.
The differences between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments, net of any tax effect, for amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other charges, acquisition related compensation, impact to cost of sales from acquisition accounting adjustments to inventory, and litigation reserves. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.
Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR commented, “Despite the challenging macro environment in Europe, we are pleased that we finished the second quarter with double digit year-over-year worldwide revenue growth. We increased our R&D spend and we are excited about the 26 products introduced in Q2 as well as the new products planned for the rest of the year. We continued to see strong revenue growth and market share gain in Asia Pacific, the fastest growing region in the world.”
“Our Service Provider Business Unit net revenue for the quarter ended July 1, 2012 was up 3% sequentially, and up an impressive 19% over the prior year quarter. The second quarter was another record for quarterly net revenue for our Service Provider Business Unit. Our Commercial Business Unit net revenue was up 8% sequentially, and up 5% over the prior year quarter. Our Retail Business Unit net revenue for the quarter was down 12% sequentially, which is typical of second quarter seasonality. On a year-over-year basis, our Retail Business Unit net revenue was up 5%.”
Christine Gorjanc, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, said, “We are excited to announce that we have recently closed two acquisitions. First, in June 2012 we acquired select assets of a small engineering operation in India to enhance our small campus wireless LAN product offerings in our Commercial Business Unit. Additionally on July 2nd, we closed the acquisition of privately held AVAAK, Inc., creators of the VueZone(TM) home video monitoring system and the only completely wire-free IP cameras on the market. This acquisition gives us entry into the smart home market and is expected to be accretive in the second half of 2013. VueZone products and subscription services are currently sold online in the United States and we plan to roll them out both online and in stores worldwide over the next 6 to 12 months. In aggregate we invested approximately $31 million in cash for these two acquisitions which we expect to help us achieve our longer term growth objectives.”
Looking forward, Mr. Lo added, “We expect our Service Provider Business Unit revenue to decline in the coming quarter due to reduced marketing activities among our customers. However, in the third quarter we expect that our Retail and Commercial Business Units will benefit from the increased market demand generated by the back to school season. We also expect to introduce about 25 new products in Q3. Specifically, for the third quarter of 2012, we expect net revenue in the range of approximately $310 million to $325 million, with non-GAAP operating margin to be in the range of 11% to 12%.”

The words “anticipate”, “expect”, “believe”, “will”, “may”, “should”, “estimate”, “project”, “outlook”, “forecast” or other similar words are used to identify such forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements represent NETGEAR, Inc.’s expectations or beliefs concerning future events based on information available at the time such statements were made and include statements, among others, regarding NETGEAR’s expected revenue and operating margin, expectations on the performance of the two recent acquisitions, including expectations regarding VueZone worldwide roll out and achievement of long term objectives, expectations regarding a potential slow down in service provider business unit performance in the third quarter, and expectations regarding retail and commercial business unit performance relating to back to school demand, and the number of new products to be introduced in the third quarter. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the following: future demand for the Company’s products may be lower than anticipated; consumers may choose not to adopt the Company’s new product offerings or adopt competing products; product performance may be adversely affected by real world operating conditions; the Company may be unsuccessful or experience delays in manufacturing and distributing its new and existing products; telecommunications service providers may choose to slow their deployment of the Company’s products or utilize competing products; the Company may be unable to collect receivables as they become due; the Company may fail to manage costs, including the cost of developing new products and manufacturing and distribution of its existing offerings; the Company may fail to successfully continue to effect operating expense savings; channel inventory information reported is estimated based on the average number of weeks of inventory on hand on the last Saturday of the quarter, as reported by certain of NETGEAR’s customers; changes in the level of NETGEAR’s cash resources and the Company’s planned usage of such resources; changes in the Company’s stock price and developments in the business that could increase the Company’s cash needs, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, and the actions and financial health of the Company’s customers.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, NETGEAR uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted to exclude certain expenses and tax benefits, where applicable. We believe non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of NETGEAR’s underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results. In addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
