INVN Invensense, Inc.

InvenSense Inc. (NYSE: INVN), a leading provider of MEMS sensor platform solutions, today announced results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2016, ended April 3, 2016.

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 was $79.5 million, down 34 percent from $120.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, and down 20 percent from $99.3 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.

Gross margin determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was 41 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, consistent with 41 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. GAAP gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 included stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes and amortization of acquisition intangibles. Excluding these items, non-GAAP gross margin was 45 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, up from 44 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 was $22.9 million, or $0.25 per share. By comparison, GAAP net income was $1.9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 included stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes, accreting interest expense on convertible notes, amortization of acquisition intangibles and other adjustments. Excluding these items and the income tax effect of the excluded items as well as other discrete tax items, non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 was $1.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with net income of $16.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

The reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial results for all referenced periods is provided in a table immediately following the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations below.

Fiscal Year 2016 Results

Net revenue for the fiscal year 2016 was $418.4 million, up $46.4 million, or 12% from $372.0 million for the fiscal year 2015.

GAAP net loss for the fiscal year 2016 was $21.2 million, or $0.23 per share, compared with net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.01 per share for the fiscal year 2015. On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the fiscal year 2016 was $45.6 million, or $0.49 per diluted share. This compares with non-GAAP net income of $42.7 million, or $0.46 per diluted share for the fiscal year 2015.

Management Qualitative Comments

"Q4 was a solid quarter, capping off a productive year for InvenSense," said Behrooz Abdi, president and CEO. "Throughout fiscal 2016, we drove significant technology advancement in key use cases that are fueling sensor adoption today. These use cases can be applied across a variety of vertical markets and applications, which we believe will enable us to maximize our R&D investments and drive significant TAM expansion. Our market-leading solutions continued to gain traction in emerging Internet of Things (IoT) platforms such as drones, virtual and augmented reality, wearables, smart home, and industrial applications. We believe that the broad applicability of our portfolio positions us for continued diversification and growth in these exciting markets."

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As discussed above, in addition to the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes stock-based compensation expense, accreting interest expense on convertible notes, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, certain legal and litigation expenses, contingent consideration adjustment, legal settlement expense, and other adjustments. The company uses these non-GAAP measures in its own financial and operational decision-making processes. Further, the company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer an important analytical tool to help investors understand the company’s core operating results and trends and facilitate comparability with the operating results of other companies that provide similar non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures have certain limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company’s compensation mix and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company’s GAAP results for the foreseeable future, but it is not reflected in our non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
