Lattice Semiconductor Reports First Quarter 2013 Results
HILLSBORO, OR -- April 18, 2013 -- Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: LSCC) today announced financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended March 30, 2013.
For the first quarter, revenue was $71.2 million, an increase of 8.0% from $65.9 million reported in the prior quarter, and a decrease of 0.7% from the $71.7 million reported in the same quarter a year ago. FPGA revenue for the first quarter was $22.9 million, an increase from the $20.9 million reported in the prior quarter, and slight decrease from the $23.3 million reported in the same quarter a year ago. PLD revenue for the first quarter was $48.3 million, an increase from the $45.0 million reported in the prior quarter, and essentially flat with the $48.4 million reported in the same quarter a year ago.
Net income for the first quarter was $1.9 million ($0.02 per diluted share), which included tax expense of $0.7 million, amortization expense from acquired intangibles of $0.7 million and restructuring charges of $0.2 million, compared to the prior quarter net loss of $7.2 million ($0.06 per basic and diluted share) and net loss of $7.7 million ($0.07 per basic and diluted share) reported in the same quarter a year ago. Fourth quarter of 2012 financial results included $0.4 million ($0.00 per basic and diluted share) income tax expense, $0.8 million of amortization expense from acquired intangibles and $5.4 million of restructuring related charges. First quarter of 2012 financial results included a $7.9 million ($0.07 per basic and diluted share) income tax expense, $1.7 million of acquisition related costs and $0.6 million of restructuring related charges.
Darin G. Billerbeck, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Revenue for the first quarter of 2013 came in at the high end of upwardly revised guidance and well above our original guidance. The strong revenue growth directly reflects expansion into the consumer market along with some strengthening in the communications market. Importantly, we returned to profitability in the first quarter, which is the ultimate validation of our market strategy and operations execution. We are pleased by the traction we are seeing with our low density, low power programmable devices especially in applications where long battery life is crucial."
Joe Bedewi, Corporate Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, "Gross margin for Q1 was 53.6% at the midpoint of our original guidance. Margins continue to be strong due to higher than anticipated OEM shipments, mix and inventory management. Margins will continue to fluctuate throughout the year due to mix and volume in the consumer market. We are offsetting some of this mix related impact through continued cost reductions in operations. Our long-term gross margin target remains at the mid-50% level. Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2013 were approximately $35.5 million, which included $0.2 million in restructuring charges. Finally, during the quarter we repurchased approximately 0.6 million shares of our common stock at a cost of approximately $2.5 million."
