CAMD California Micro Devices Corp. (MM)

MILPITAS, Calif., July 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Micro Devices (NASDAQ:CAMD) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, which ended June 30, 2007. Revenue, GAAP EPS and non- GAAP EPS were all near or at the high end of revised guidance. Revenue was $13.1 million, compared to $16.1 million a year ago. On a GAAP basis, the company reported a loss of $0.05 per share compared to a loss of $0.09 in Q1 of fiscal 2007, which included a $2.2 million write off of in-process R&D related to the Arques Technology acquisition. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding Arques Technology acquisition costs and employee stock-based compensation expenses, and using a cash basis tax rate, the company posted a loss of $0.02 per share compared to a profit of $0.05 a year ago. "Q1 was a more challenging quarter than we had originally expected although I'm happy to say that we ended up at the high end of our revised guidance due to stronger demand at the end of the quarter for our older products for personal computers and for our low capacitance ESD protection devices," said Robert V. Dickinson, president and CEO. "Handset protection revenue declined 20% sequentially, in line with our revised guidance. We believe that our handset protection market share stabilized in the quarter and that the decline in revenue was the result of share shifts in the handset market, channel inventory overhang, component inventory reductions and the deferral of consumer buying decisions for high end phones due to the release of the iPhone at the end of the quarter. We expect our handset protection market share and revenue to both grow in future quarters." According to Dickinson, bookings in the June quarter were down sequentially consistent with lower revenue and changes in customer mix. He added that although design wins were down somewhat from the prior quarter, "We were particularly pleased to see design wins for our industry leading Praetorian filters at a second top 5 handset maker as well as additional design wins for our new serial interface display controllers." Looking ahead, Dickinson said, "We expect revenue to grow in the September quarter driven primarily by increased demand from the top 5 mobile handset manufacturers with whom we do business." Q2 revenue is expected to be between $13.0 and $16.0 million and diluted EPS on a GAAP basis to be between a loss of $0.07 and $0.03. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding Arques Technology acquisition costs and employee stock-based compensation expenses, and using a cash basis tax rate, diluted EPS are expected to be between a loss of $0.04 and breakeven.

All statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. They are not guarantees of future performance or events. Rather, they are based on current expectations, estimates, beliefs, assumptions, and goals and objectives and are subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from the statements made. Often such statements can be identified by their use of words such as will, intends, expects, plans, believes, anticipates, and estimates. Forward-looking statements made in this release include our expected revenues, both overall and for certain markets for the fiscal 2008 second quarter; our expected GAAP and non-GAAP diluted loss per share for the fiscal 2008 second quarter; and our belief that our mobile handset protection market share and revenue will both start to grow beginning in the fiscal 2008 second quarter. These forward- looking statements are based upon our assumptions about and assessment of the future, which may or may not prove true, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to whether our customers experience the demand we anticipate for their products based in part upon their input and our order backlog; whether the designed performance of our devices satisfies our customers' requirements so that they continue to design our devices into their products; whether our devices perform to their design specification; whether we incur unexpected operating expenses; whether demand grows as anticipated for those mobile handsets our devices have been designed into and whether customers utilize our devices for those products; there not being any unanticipated price reductions for our devices whether due to competitor inroads or otherwise; and there being no interruption in the supply of quality product from our contract manufacturers, contract assemblers and test houses as well as the risk factors detailed in the company's Form 8K, 10K, and 10Q filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Due to these and other risks, the company's future actual results could differ materially from those discussed above. These forward-looking statements speak only as to the date of this release, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly release updates or revisions to these statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company's earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures which, among other items, exclude the effects of employee share-based compensation and the requirements of SFAS No. 123R, "Share-based Payment" ("123R"). The non-GAAP financial measures used by management and disclosed by the company exclude the income statement effects of all forms of employee share-based compensation and the effects of 123R upon the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP earnings per share. The non-GAAP financial measures also exclude Arques Technology acquisition related costs, including amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and, during the first quarter of fiscal 2007, one-time charges for acquired in-process research and development. . In addition, these non-GAAP measures utilize a tax rate that is based upon the income taxes the company expects to actually pay relating to this quarter's activities and results. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Set forth below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. For additional information concerning the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the Form 8-K dated July 19, 2007 which the company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 19, 2007.
