MagnaChip Reports Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results

October 29, 2015 4:01 PM

SEOUL, South Korea and SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation ("MagnaChip") (NYSE: MX), a Korea-based designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $154.4 million, a 4.7% decline compared to $162.0 million for the second quarter of 2015, and down 20.6% compared to $194.3 million for the third quarter of 2014. Foundry Services revenue in the third quarter of 2015 was $71.5 million and Standard Products Group revenue was $82.7 million.

Gross profit was $34.7 million, or 22.5% as a percent of revenue for the third quarter of 2015. This compared with gross profit of $35.3 million, or 21.8%, for the second quarter of 2015 and $42.6 million, or 21.9%, for the third quarter of 2014. Foundry gross profit was 26.1% and Standard Products Group gross profit was 19.1% in the third quarter of 2015.

Net loss, on a GAAP basis, for the third quarter of 2015 totaled $57.1 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $30.6 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015 and net loss of $46.8 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014. Net loss stemmed primarily from lower revenue and gross profit, as well as from non-cash foreign currency translation loss.

"We continue to face many challenges but in the third quarter we executed on our product strategies, achieved our short-term financial goals and continued to streamline the organization and reduce costs," said YJ Kim, Chief Executive Officer. "Despite a weak macro environment, revenue in the third quarter came in at the high end of our expectations, as we benefited from the adoption of our standard products by companies in China."

Chief Financial Officer Jonathan Kim commented, "We are well on our way to achieving our previously announced target to reduce total normalized spending by over $40 million in 2015 compared to 2014. Spending in the first three quarters of 2015 declined by approximately $38 million as compared with the same period last year," said Mr. Kim, "and our 2016 spending targets are now under review as part of a comprehensive cost reduction plan launched earlier this year."

Adjusted Net Loss, a non-GAAP measurement, for the third quarter of 2015 totaled $10.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $11.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015 and compared to an adjusted net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014.

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, can provide a meaningful understanding of the factors and trends affecting MagnaChip's business and operations. However, such non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income or as a better indicator of our operating performance than measures that are presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included following the financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $68.5 million at the end of the third quarter of 2015, a decrease of $4.2 million from the end of the prior quarter.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax expenses (benefits), (iv) equity-based compensation expense, (v) foreign currency loss, net, (vi) derivative valuation loss, net and (vii) restatement related expenses.

We present Adjusted Net Loss as a further supplemental measure of our performance. We prepare Adjusted Net Loss by adjusting net loss to eliminate the impact of a number of non-cash expenses and other items that may be either one time or recurring that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance. We believe that Adjusted Net Loss is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Net Loss as net loss adjusted to exclude (i) equity-based compensation expense, (ii) amortization of intangibles, (iii) foreign currency loss, net, (vi) derivative valuation loss, net and (v) restatement related expenses.
