marvell_logoxhorizxblkxrgba.jpg
Marvell Technology, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2024
Financial Results

Q4 Net Revenue: $1.427 billion, grew by 1% year-on-year
Q4 Gross Margin: 46.6% GAAP gross margin; 63.9% non-GAAP gross margin
Q4 Diluted income (loss) per share: $(0.45) GAAP diluted loss per share; $0.46 non-GAAP diluted income per share

Santa Clara, Calif. (March 7, 2024) - Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVL), a leader in data infrastructure semiconductor solutions, today reported financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended February 3, 2024.

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $1.427 billion, above the mid-point of the Company’s guidance provided on November 30, 2023. GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $(392.7) million, or $(0.45) per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $401.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted share. Cash flows from operations for the fourth quarter was $546.6 million.

Net revenue for fiscal 2024 was $5.508 billion. GAAP net loss for fiscal 2024 was $(933.4) million, or $(1.08) per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2024 was $1.310 billion, or $1.51 per diluted share.

“Marvell delivered fourth quarter fiscal 2024 revenue of $1.427 billion, above the mid-point of guidance. AI drove strong growth in our data center end market revenue which increased 38% sequentially and 54% year-over-year. As a critical enabler of accelerated infrastructure for AI, Marvell is well positioned to capitalize on this massive technology inflection, which continues to gain momentum,” said Matt Murphy, Marvell’s Chairman and CEO. “In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we expect continued sequential growth in our data center revenue with initial shipments of our cloud optimized silicon programs for AI complementing our electro-optics franchise. While we are forecasting soft demand impacting consumer, carrier infrastructure, and enterprise networking in the near term, we expect revenue declines in these end markets to be behind us after the first quarter, and project a recovery in the second half of the fiscal year.”

First Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Financial Outlook
 
Net revenue is expected to be $1.150 billion +/- 5%.
GAAP gross margin is expected to be 44.5% - 47.2%.
Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be 62.0% - 63.0%.
GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $676 million.
Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $455 million.
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding are expected to be 866 million.
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are expected to be 875 million.
GAAP diluted loss per share is expected to be $(0.23) +/- $0.05 per share.
Non-GAAP diluted income per share is expected to be $0.23 +/- $0.05 per share.

GAAP diluted EPS is calculated using basic weighted-average shares outstanding when there is a GAAP net loss, and calculated using diluted weighted-average shares outstanding when there is a GAAP net income. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is calculated using diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.



Conference Call

Marvell will conduct a conference call on Thursday, March 7, 2024 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time to discuss results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2024. Interested parties may join the conference call by dialing 1-888-317-6003 or 1-412-317-6061, passcode 0056377. The call will be webcast and can be accessed at the Marvell Investor Relations website at http://investor.marvell.com/. A replay of the call can be accessed by dialing 1-877-344-7529 or 1-412-317-0088, passcode 3453492 until Thursday, March 14, 2024.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of the inventory fair value adjustment associated with acquisitions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition and divestiture-related costs, restructuring and other related charges (including, but not limited to, asset impairment charges, employee severance costs, and facilities related charges), resolution of legal matters, and certain expenses and benefits that are driven primarily by discrete events that management does not consider to be directly related to Marvell’s core business. Although Marvell excludes the amortization of all acquired intangible assets from these non-GAAP financial measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase price accounting arising from acquisitions, and that such amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to Marvell’s revenues earned during the periods presented and are expected to contribute to Marvell’s future period revenues as well.

Marvell uses a non-GAAP tax rate to compute the non-GAAP tax provision. This non-GAAP tax rate is based on Marvell’s estimated annual GAAP income tax forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from Marvell’s non-GAAP income, as well as the effects of significant non-recurring and period specific tax items which vary in size and frequency, and excludes tax deductions and benefits from acquired tax loss and credit carryforwards and changes in valuation allowance on acquired deferred tax assets. Marvell’s non-GAAP tax rate is determined on an annual basis and may be adjusted during the year to take into account events that may materially affect the non-GAAP tax rate such as tax law changes; acquisitions; significant changes in Marvell’s geographic mix of revenue and expenses; or changes to Marvell’s corporate structure. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, a non-GAAP tax rate of 6.0% has been applied to the non-GAAP financial results.

Marvell believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Marvell’s financial condition and results of operations. While Marvell uses non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance its understanding of certain aspects of its financial performance, Marvell does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Consistent with this approach, Marvell believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of its financial statements provides such readers with useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial measures, allows for greater transparency in the review of its financial and operational performance.

Externally, management believes that investors may find Marvell’s non-GAAP financial measures useful in their assessment of Marvell’s operating performance and the valuation of Marvell. Internally, Marvell’s non-GAAP financial measures are used in the following areas:

Management’s evaluation of Marvell’s operating performance;
Management’s establishment of internal operating budgets;
Management’s performance comparisons with internal forecasts and targeted business models; and
Management’s determination of the achievement and measurement of certain performance-based equity awards (adjustments may vary from award to award).

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of Marvell’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Marvell’s results as reported under GAAP. The exclusion of the above items from our GAAP financial metrics does not necessarily mean that these costs are unusual or infrequent.

(c)

(d)Other costs included in operating expenses and other income, net include charges for an intellectual property matter, net gains on investments, and acquisition related costs.
(e)
Other income tax effects and adjustments relate to the tax provision based on a non-GAAP income tax rate of 6.0%. In the three months and year ended February 3, 2024, we excluded $289 million and $158 million, respectively, of non-recurring income tax expense relating to guidance issued by the IRS on December 22, 2023 clarifying the requirement to capitalize certain U.S. R&D costs, which became effective for us retroactively to the year ended January 28, 2023. As a result of this IRS guidance, which is intended to be part of published Treasury Regulations, we have determined that such costs are currently deductible in computing our taxable income, and no longer have to be capitalized. This discrete change in treatment reduced the amount of R&D credits we utilized to offset our taxes, which reduced the deferred tax benefits that we previously recognized for utilization of such credits because they carried a full valuation allowance. As a result of this change, we have reinstated these R&D credit carryforwards with a full valuation allowance (consistent with past practice), and reduced our income taxes payable for the years ended January 28, 2023 and February 3, 2024. In the year ended January 28, 2023, $213.6 million of non-recurring income tax expense associated with the extension of a tax incentive in Singapore was excluded from our non-GAAP income tax expense. Additionally, we excluded $18.3 million of non-recurring income tax expense associated with the claw back of incentive benefits that resulted from our election to avail ourselves of a preferential temporary tax provision in Israel.
(f)
Non-GAAP diluted weighted-average shares differs from GAAP diluted weighted-average shares due to the non-GAAP net income reported.
