Aviat Networks Announces Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter and Nine-Month Financial Results; Provides Update to Its Fiscal 2019 Full Year Outlook
MILPITAS, Calif., May 13, 2019 -- Aviat Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVNW), (“Aviat Networks” or the “Company”), the leading expert in wireless transport solutions, today reported financial results for its fiscal 2019 third quarter and nine months ended March 29, 2019.
“As indicated in our release last week, our fiscal 2019 third quarter results were impacted by a component shortage in North America, which has since been corrected, and a slowdown in spending in Africa. However, our outlook for the fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year remains strong. North America continues to be an area of growth and fuels our optimism over the coming years. Internationally, we are adjusting our near-term outlook for Africa and transitioning our business model accordingly. Asia continues to grow as evidenced by our third quarter and year-to-date results, and we expect this momentum to continue.”
“As we’ve seen for the past several years, our business can fluctuate quarter to quarter. With that said, over a two-quarter period, you can see more stability and for the third year in a row, profitability has improved. We have also returned Aviat to growth over the past two years and expect to be in position to improve our operations in the coming year. We continue to drive innovation in our product offering and expand our services, resulting in new business and future opportunities, both in the private network and service provider segments. We also anticipate further improvements to our balance sheet and feel confident in our ability to enhance shareholder value.”
Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter and Nine-Month Results Comparisons
Revenue Comparisons:
The Company reported total revenue of $54.0 million for its fiscal 2019 third quarter as compared to $62.1 million in the comparable fiscal 2018 period. The year-over-year change was due to a $3.2 million decline in North America revenue, with the majority related to a component shortage which has since been corrected, and a $4.9 million decline in international revenue, primarily due to lower spending in Africa, and offset by an increase in revenue primarily in the Asia region.
For the nine-month period in fiscal 2019, the Company reported total revenue of $179.6 million, roughly in line with the comparable fiscal 2018 period. The year-over-year change for the nine-month period was primarily related to a $6.1 million decline in North America revenue due to the component shortage referenced above, as well as the timing of customer project milestones. This was partially offset by a $5.7 million increase in international revenue, with a significant increase in Asia.
Gross Profit Margin Comparisons:
GAAP gross margin for the fiscal 2019 third quarter was 30.1%, as compared to 29.2% in the comparable fiscal 2018 period, an improvement of 90 basis points. Non-GAAP gross margin for the fiscal 2019 third quarter was 30.2%, as compared to 29.1% in the comparable fiscal 2018 period, an improvement of 110 basis points. The year-over-year improvement in gross margin was driven primarily by improved profitability of product sales and lower supply chain costs.
GAAP gross margin for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was 31.5% as compared to 31.8% in the comparable year-ago period, a decline of 30 basis points. Non-GAAP gross margin for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was 31.6% as compared to 31.8% for the nine-month period of fiscal 2018, a decline of 20 basis points. The modest year-over-year decline in gross margin was primarily due to lower service margin rates caused by lower services volume in Africa and the Middle East, offset by higher product margins and lower supply chain costs.
Operating Expense Comparisons:
GAAP total operating expenses for the fiscal 2019 third quarter were $18.8 million as compared to $19.5 million in the comparable fiscal 2018 period, an improvement of $0.7 million or 3.8%. Non-GAAP total operating expenses for the fiscal 2019 third quarter, excluding the impact of share-based compensation and costs associated with strategic-related activities, were $17.9 million as compared to $19.0 million reported in the fiscal 2018 third quarter, an improvement of $1.1 million or 5.9%. The year-over-year improvement was primarily related to a reduction in related variable compensation expense, offset by higher research and development expenses, both on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis as the Company continues to invest in innovation and advance its offerings. GAAP total operating expenses for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period were $57.8 million as compared to $57.0 million in the comparable fiscal 2018 period. Non-GAAP total operating expenses for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period, excluding the impact of share-based compensation, restructuring charges (recovery) and costs associated with strategic-related activities, were $55.3 million as compared to $54.8 million reported for the comparable fiscal 2018 period, with the increase primarily related to a $0.9 million increase in non-GAAP research and development expenses to fund growth initiatives and future product roll-outs.
Operating Income (Loss) Comparisons:
GAAP operating loss was $2.5 million for the fiscal 2019 third quarter, as compared to a GAAP operating loss of $1.4 million for the comparable fiscal 2018 period. Non-GAAP operating loss was $1.6 million for the fiscal 2019 third quarter as compared to a non-GAAP operating loss of $0.9 million for the comparable fiscal 2018 period. For the fiscal 2019 nine-month period, the Company reported a GAAP operating loss of $1.1 million as compared to GAAP operating income of $0.3 million in the comparable year-ago period. For the fiscal 2019 nine-month period, the Company reported non-GAAP operating income of $1.5 million, as compared to non-GAAP operating income of $2.3 million for the fiscal 2018 nine-month period.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit) Comparisons:
For the third quarter ended March 29, 2019, the Company recorded a benefit from income taxes of $6.8 million, as compared to a provision for income taxes of $1.0 million in the comparable fiscal 2018 period.
The benefit for the third quarter ended March 29, 2019 was primarily due to a partial release of valuation allowance related to the Company’s U.S. deferred tax asset, based on sufficient positive objective evidence that the Company would generate sufficient taxable income in the U.S. to realize the deferred tax assets. Realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is primarily dependent upon future taxable income. If the Company’s assumptions and consequently its estimates change in the future, the valuation allowances may be increased or decreased, resulting in a respective increase or decrease in income tax expense.
The net income tax benefit for the fiscal 2018 nine-month period was primarily due to the foreign tax refunds received from the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (“IRAS”) of $1.3 million and the release of a valuation allowance related to refundable AMT credit of $3.3 million as provided under the Tax Act, offset by tax expense related to profitable subsidiaries.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Aviat Networks Comparisons:
For the fiscal 2019 third quarter, the Company reported GAAP net income of $4.3 million or net income per diluted share of $0.78, as compared to a GAAP net loss of $2.6 million or a net loss per diluted share of $0.49 in the fiscal 2018 third quarter. The Company reported a non-GAAP net loss in the fiscal 2019 third quarter of $1.8 million or a net loss per diluted share of $0.33, as compared to a non-GAAP net loss in the fiscal 2018 third quarter of $1.4 million or a net loss per diluted share of $0.26.
For the nine-month period in fiscal 2019, the Company reported GAAP net income of $5.9 million or net income per diluted share of $1.05, as compared to GAAP net income of $1.8 million or net income per diluted share of $0.32. The Company reported non-GAAP net income of $0.6 million or net income per diluted share of $0.11, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.9 million or net income per diluted share of $0.17 in the comparable fiscal 2018 period.
The Company reported an Adjusted Earnings Before Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) loss of $0.5 million for the fiscal 2019 third quarter, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $0.2 million in the fiscal 2018 third quarter. For the fiscal 2019 nine-month period, Adjusted EBITDA was $4.9 million, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $5.7 million in the fiscal 2018 nine-month period.
Balance Sheet Updates
As of March 29, 2019, the Company reported cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $36.1 million, as compared to cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $37.4 million at June 29, 2018. Note, during the fiscal 2019 nine-month period, the Company repurchased approximately $1.9 million of its common stock under its Stock Repurchase Program. On a sequential basis, when comparing against the fiscal 2019 second quarter, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash position increased by $4.5 million. The sequential improvement was anticipated and was a result of stronger collections in North America.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2019, along with the accompanying notes, is provided in Table 3 below.
Fiscal 2019 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Outlook
• | The Company expects revenue in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter to be in the range of $66.0 million - $71.0 million, which would result in total revenue of approximately $246.0 million - $251.0 million in fiscal 2019, or growth of approximately 1.0 - 3.0%. As previously communicated, fiscal fourth quarter revenues were anticipated to be stronger than the fiscal 2019 third quarter and the Company has resolved the component shortage which adversely impacted fiscal 2019 third quarter results. The narrowed range from the Company’s prior guidance is related to the current and anticipated slowdown in spending in Africa, offset by a strong outlook in North America. |
• | Non-GAAP gross margins in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter are anticipated to be 35.5 - 36.5%, resulting in non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 33.0% in fiscal 2019, in line with the Company’s prior guidance. |
• | Non-GAAP operating expenses in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter are anticipated to be in the range of $18.0 million - $19.0 million, with the higher end of the range dependent upon achieving anticipated top- and bottom-line results. This would result in total operating expenses of $73.5 million - $74.5 million for fiscal 2019. |
• | Non-GAAP operating income in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter is anticipated to be approximately $6.0 million, resulting in fiscal 2019 non-GAAP operating income of approximately $7.5 million. |
• | Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter is anticipated to be approximately $7.0 million, resulting in fiscal 2019 Adjusted EBITDA of $11.0 million - $12.0 million, with the minor variance from prior guidance based on the current spending environment in Africa. However, the Company anticipates a year-over-year bottom-line improvement, representing the third year in a row. |

Management of Aviat Networks monitors gross margin, research and development expenses, selling and administrative expenses, operating income (loss), income tax provision (benefit), income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Aviat Networks, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share from continuing operations attributable to Aviat Networks, adjusted income before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) attributable to Aviat Networks adjusted to exclude certain costs, charges, gains and losses, on a non-GAAP basis for planning and forecasting results in future periods, and may use these measures for some management compensation purposes. These measures exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses as shown on the attached Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures table (Table 3). As a result, management is presenting these non-GAAP measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance in each period.

Management also believes that these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of an investor to analyze trends in Aviat Networks’ business and to better understand its performance. Aviat Networks' management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Aviat Networks presents these non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate its financial performance.

AVIAT NETWORKS, INC.
Fiscal Year 2019 Third Quarter Summary
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATION G DISCLOSURE
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), we provide additional measures of gross margin, research and development expenses, selling and administrative expenses, operating (loss) income, provision for or benefit from income taxes, net income attributable to Aviat Networks, diluted net income per share attributable to Aviat Networks, and adjusted income before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) attributable to Aviat Networks, adjusted to exclude certain costs, charges, gains and losses, as set forth below. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. We also believe these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in our business and to understand our performance. In addition, we may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a guide in our forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning process and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP follow.

_____________________________________________________
(1) | The adjustments above reconcile our GAAP financial results to the non-GAAP financial measures used by us. Our non-GAAP net (loss) income attributable to Aviat Networks excluded share-based compensation, and other non-recurring charges (recovery). Adjusted EBITDA was determined by excluding depreciation and amortization on property, plant and equipment, interest, provision for or benefit from income taxes, and non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments, as set forth above, from the GAAP net income attributable to Aviat Networks. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP items provides meaningful supplemental information to investors, when viewed in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, our GAAP results. However, the non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. |
