BigBand Networks Announces Third Quarter 2009 Results
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BigBand Networks, Inc., (NASDAQ: BBND) today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009.
For the third quarter of 2009, total revenues were $22.2 million, and GAAP net loss was $10.9 million, or ($0.16) per share. This compares to revenues of $48.3 million and GAAP net income of $3.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, reported in the third quarter of 2008.
On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported a net loss of $5.9 million, or ($0.09) per share, in the third quarter of 2009, which compares to non-GAAP net income of $6.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, reported in the third quarter of 2008. Third quarter 2009 non-GAAP results exclude $3.8 million of stock-based compensation expense and include a $1.1 million tax benefit for the reduction of taxes provided earlier in the year. The GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 can be found in "The Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" attached to this press release.
The Company closed the third quarter with $41.8 million in deferred revenue. In addition, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $161.6 million at September 30, 2009.
"We are encouraged by the significant improvement in bookings during the third quarter, compared to the slower order activity experienced in the second quarter of 2009 that resulted in lower revenues in the September period," commented Amir Bassan-Eskenazi, president and CEO of BigBand Networks. "We won major new Switched Digital Video markets, which increased our coverage to more than 28 million homes. In addition, we experienced stronger bookings in other solutions, which increases our confidence for improved operating results in the fourth quarter. Based on interactions with our customers and prospects, we believe operators are preparing to increase capital spending on video equipment in 2010."
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, total revenues were $105.1 million, and GAAP net loss was $5.5 million, or ($0.08) per share. This compares to total revenues of $131.2 million and GAAP net income of $2.5 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, reported in the nine months ended September 30, 2008. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $6.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $12.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, reported in the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
Fourth Quarter 2009 Business Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2009, management provides the following outlook:
-- Net revenues are expected to be in the range of $32 million to $34
million.
-- GAAP gross margins are expected to be in the range of 53% to 55%, which
includes $0.6 million in stock-based compensation expense.
-- Non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be in the range of 55% to 57%.
-- GAAP operating expenses are expected to be in the range of $23.5 million
to $24.0 million, which includes $3.3 million of stock-based
compensation expense.
-- Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be in the range of $20.5
million to $21.0 million.
-- GAAP provision for income taxes is expected to be a benefit of $0.3
million.
-- Non-GAAP provision for income taxes is expected to be a benefit of $0.8
million.
-- GAAP net loss per share is expected to range from ($0.07) to ($0.10).
-- Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $0.00 to
($0.03).
The following table shows our non-GAAP business outlook for the quarter ending December 31, 2009 reconciled to our GAAP business outlook. Our non-GAAP business outlook excludes stock-based compensation and income tax benefit.

GAAP net loss ($0.07) ($0.10)
Stock-based compensation 0.06 0.06
Income tax benefit 0.01 0.01
Non-GAAP net loss $0.00 ($0.03)
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
BigBand reports all financial information required in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but we believe that evaluating our ongoing operating results may be difficult to understand if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Many of our investors have requested that we disclose non-GAAP information because it is useful in understanding our performance as it excludes non-cash and other one-time charges or benefits that many investors feel may obscure our true operating results. Likewise, management uses non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability of our business going forward and does not consider stock-based compensation expense and related income taxes which are non-cash charges. Specifically, management does not consider these expenses when developing and monitoring our budgets and spending. The economic substance behind our decision to exclude stock-based compensation and related income taxes relates to these charges being non-cash in nature. As a result, we use calculations of non-GAAP operating income (loss), net income (loss), net income (loss) per share and gross margin, which exclude these expenses, when evaluating our ongoing operations and allocating resources within the organization.
As a result, our management believes it is useful, for itself and investors, to review both GAAP information that includes such charges and non-GAAP information that exclude these charges because management believes such information enables such parties to have a better understanding of the overall performance of our ongoing business operations in the periods presented.
Whenever we use a non-GAAP financial measure, we provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
