Entegris Reports Results for Second Quarter of Fiscal 2007

CHASKA, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 2, 2007--Entegris, Inc. (Nasdaq: ENTG) today reported its financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended June 30, 2007. Highlights for the quarter included:

  • Sales of $153.5 million, excluding sales of $2 million related to discontinued operations
  • Non-GAAP operating margin of 10.5%
  • Diluted GAAP EPS of $0.11, including a one-time gain of $0.03 per share
  • Diluted Non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations of $0.11
  • Cash from operations of $49 million

Second-quarter sales were $153.5 million, versus $179.3 million for the same period a year ago and $159.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Second-quarter sales exclude revenues of approximately $2 million from a line of wafer carrier cleaning equipment the Company intends to divest, which has been reported within discontinued operations.

Second-quarter GAAP net income was $14.8 million, or $0.11 per fully diluted share, which includes a loss from discontinued operations of $1.0 million net of tax, or $0.01 per diluted share. On a non-GAAP basis, second-quarter net income from continuing operations was $15.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. The non-GAAP result is adjusted to exclude the effects of merger-related and other restructuring charges and a one-time, pre-tax gain of $6.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, from the sale of the Company's equity interest in a "quick turn" tooling manufacturer. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided elsewhere in this release.

The second-quarter results include total pretax stock-based compensation of $2.7 million, or $0.01 per fully diluted share, of which $0.5 million represents integration-related stock-based compensation.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $313.1 million. First-half GAAP net income was $25.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share. On a non-GAAP basis, first-half net income from continuing operations was $30.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share.

Gideon Argov, president and chief executive officer, said: "Second-quarter sales were at the low end of our guidance, excluding the impact of discontinued operations. Sales of our unit-driven products were 60 percent of total second-quarter sales, as the favorable impact of higher semiconductor production on our business was offset by seasonally slower sales of data storage component shippers and general weakness in some non-semiconductor microelectronics markets. Sales of capital-driven products, which were 40 percent of total second-quarter sales, were consistent with slower capital spending in the industry."

Argov added: "As we continue to look for ways to optimize our business, we have decided to exit a small, non-strategic line of cleaning equipment. In addition, we are in the process of transferring the manufacturing of four key product lines from our U.S.-based manufacturing sites to our facility in Kulim, Malaysia."

The Company ended the quarter with $138.5 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. "With the successful completion of a $250 million tender offer in June, we have reset the Company's capital structure to support our focus on maximizing return on invested capital. Our solid balance sheet and strong cash flow continue to provide us flexibility to grow our business and to continue to repurchase shares over time," Argov said.

Outlook

For its fiscal third quarter ending September 29, 2007, the Company currently expects sales from continuing operations to be down 4 to 8 percent to approximately $142 million to $148 million. Reflecting the lower estimated sales in the third quarter and the Company's commitment to sustained strategic investments in new product development and manufacturing initiatives, GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to range from $0.03 to $0.05. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to range from approximately $0.05 to $0.07, reflecting pretax adjustments for merger-related amortization expense of $3.5 million and integration-related stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.4 million.
