Management Comments
"We reported revenue and EPS in-line with our guidance for the first quarter as we continued to execute on our long-term growth strategy," said Dr. Valentin Gapontsev, IPG Photonics' Chief Executive Officer. "Revenues of $207.2 million increased 4% year-over-year, or by approximately 7% on a constant currency basis. First-quarter 2016 EPS of $0.92 included $0.07 per share related to foreign exchange losses, compared with Q1 2015 EPS of $1.08, which included an $0.11 foreign exchange gain."
Materials processing sales in the first quarter increased 3% year-over-year, primarily reflecting solid growth in cutting applications which is IPG's largest end-use, partially offset by a decline in automotive welding, marking and engraving. In addition, Q1 2015 benefited from several million dollars in revenue from a one-time order for a novel surface patterning application.
Sales to Other Applications were up 30% from the first quarter of 2015 with strong performances in advanced applications and telecom. Geographically, IPG reported strong growth in North America, China and Turkey, while sales were lower in Korea, Japan and Russia. Despite foreign exchange headwinds and continuing competition, sales growth in China was approximately 9% driven by cutting and welding applications.
During the first quarter, IPG generated $64.0 million in cash from operations and used $25.0 million to finance capital expenditures. IPG ended the quarter with $740.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, representing an increase of $50.8 million from December 31, 2015.
Business Outlook and Financial Guidance
"We continue to see large opportunities to expand our business through both existing and new OEMs and end-users as we develop innovative products to address applications beyond our core markets. We are making significant progress on the testing and development of these new product lines and we look forward to their launch," concluded Dr. Gapontsev.
IPG Photonics expects revenue in the range of $235 million to $250 million for the second quarter of 2016. The Company anticipates earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.10 to $1.25 based on 53,621,000 diluted common shares, which includes 52,898,000 basic common shares outstanding and 723,000 potentially dilutive options at March 31, 2016. As discussed in more detail in the "Safe Harbor" passage of this news release, actual results may differ from this guidance due to various factors including, but not limited to, product demand, order cancellations and delays, competition and general





economic conditions. This guidance is based upon current market conditions and expectations, and is subject to the risks outlined in the Company's reports with the SEC, and assumes exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar of Euro 0.90, Russian Ruble 70, Japanese Yen 113 and Chinese Yuan 6.51, respectively.
