Year-over-year Quarterly Revenue Growth of 25
Percent; Design-Ins Totaling $1.5 Billion
Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF) today announced its results for the
second quarter of fiscal 2023.
Quarterly Financial Highlights (all comparisons are to the
second quarter of fiscal 2022, unless otherwise noted)
- Revenue of $216.1 million, compared to $173.1 million
- GAAP gross margin of 31.0%, compared to 32.9%
- Non-GAAP gross margin of 33.6%, compared to 35.4%
- GAAP net loss of $90.9 million, or $0.73 per diluted share,
compared to $96.7 million, or $0.82 per diluted share
- Non-GAAP net loss of $14.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share,
compared to $18.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share
- Quarterly design-ins of $1.5 billion
"We are pleased to report another quarter of more than $1
billion of design-ins, highlighting the continued demand for our
Silicon Carbide technology," said Wolfspeed Chief Executive
Officer, Gregg Lowe. "Though there has been some demand pressure on
5G that has impacted our RF product line, our power devices
continue to penetrate more of the market, with strong customer
demand and new partnerships with large multinational auto
manufacturers, such as Jaguar Land Rover and Mercedes, and
automotive Tier-1s, such as BorgWarner and ZF."
Lowe continued, "We are capitalizing on the immense opportunity
in next-generation power devices by expanding our capacity
footprint. During the quarter we made great strides in both
financing and facility development. We closed on a convertible note
offering of $1.75 billion, which will directly support our
expansion efforts, while continuing to make progress on the
construction of the new materials factory in Siler City, North
Carolina and the ramp of our Mohawk Valley device fab. Related to
Mohawk Valley, a first-of-its-kind fab, we anticipate recognizing
revenue from the facility in the second half of fiscal 2023 and we
are in the final stages of scaling production. We remain on a
trajectory to meet this target, but that will largely depend on
both our ability to complete qualifications and ramp up the supply
of 200mm wafers, which we believe we will achieve. We are confident
that the investments we are making today in Silicon Carbide
capacity will generate solid returns for customers and investors
over the long run."
Business Outlook:
For its third quarter of fiscal 2023, Wolfspeed targets revenue
in a range of $210 million to $230 million. GAAP net loss is
targeted at $81 million to $88 million, or $0.65 to $0.71 per
diluted share. Non-GAAP net loss is targeted to be in a range of
$15 million to $20 million, or $0.12 to $0.16 per diluted share.
Targeted non-GAAP net loss excludes $66 million to $68 million of
estimated expenses, net of tax, related to stock-based compensation
expense, amortization or impairment of acquisition-related
intangibles, factory start-up and underutilization costs,
amortization of debt issuance costs, net of capitalized interest,
project, transformation and transaction costs and loss on Wafer
Supply Agreement.
Quarterly Conference Call:
Wolfspeed will host a conference call at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time
today to review the highlights of its second quarter results and
the fiscal third quarter 2023 business outlook, including
significant factors and assumptions underlying the targets noted
above.
The conference call will be available to the public through a
live audio web broadcast via the Internet. For webcast details,

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release highlights the Company's financial results on
both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. The GAAP results include certain
costs, charges and expenses that are excluded from non-GAAP
results. By publishing the non-GAAP measures, management intends to
provide investors with additional information to further analyze
the Company's performance, core results and underlying trends.
Wolfspeed's management evaluates results and makes operating
decisions using both GAAP and non-GAAP measures included in this
press release. Non-GAAP results are not prepared in accordance with
GAAP and non-GAAP information should be considered a supplement to,
and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are
encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures attached
to this press release.
Forward Looking Statements:
The schedules attached to this release are an integral part of
the release. This press release contains forward-looking statements
involving risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that may
cause Wolfspeed’s actual results to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements by their nature address matters that are, to different
degrees, uncertain, such as statements about our plans to grow the
business and our ability to achieve our targets for the third
quarter of fiscal 2023 and periods beyond. Actual results could
differ materially due to a number of factors, including but not
limited to, ongoing uncertainty in global economic and geopolitical
conditions, including the ongoing military conflict between Russia
and Ukraine, infrastructure development or customer or industrial
demand that could negatively affect product demand, including as a
result of an economic slowdown or recession, collectability of
receivables and other related matters as consumers and businesses
may defer purchases or payments, or default on payments; risks
related to international sales and purchases; risks associated with
our expansion plans, including design and construction delays and
cost overruns, timing and amount of government incentives actually
received, issues in installing and qualifying new equipment and
ramping production, poor production process yields and quality
control, and potential increases to our restructuring costs; the
risk that we may experience production difficulties that preclude
us from shipping sufficient quantities to meet customer orders or
that result in higher production costs, lower yields and lower
margins; our ability to lower costs; the risk that our results will
suffer if we are unable to balance fluctuations in customer demand
and capacity, including bringing on additional capacity on a timely
basis to meet customer demand; the risk that longer manufacturing
lead times may cause customers to fulfill their orders with a
competitor's products instead; product mix; risks associated with
the ramp-up of production of our new products, and our entry into
new business channels different from those in which we have
historically operated; our ability to convert customer design-ins
to sales of significant volume, and, if customer design-in activity
does result in such sales, when such sales will ultimately occur
and what the amount of such sales will be; the risk that the
economic and political uncertainty caused by the tariffs imposed by
the United States on Chinese goods, and corresponding Chinese
tariffs and currency devaluation in response, may negatively impact
demand for our products; the risk that we or our channel partners
are not able to develop and expand customer bases and accurately
anticipate demand from end customers, which can result in increased
inventory and reduced orders as we experience wide fluctuations in
supply and demand; risks resulting from the concentration of our
business among few customers, including the risk that customers may
reduce or cancel orders or fail to honor purchase commitments; the
risk that our investments may experience periods of significant
market value and interest rate volatility causing us to recognize
fair value losses on our investment; the risk posed by managing an
increasingly complex supply chain that has the ability to supply a
sufficient quantity of raw materials, subsystems and finished
products with the required specifications and quality; risks
relating to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the risk of
new and different government restrictions and regulations that
limit our ability to do business, the risk of infection in our
workforce and subsequent impact on our ability to conduct business,
the risk that our supply chain, including our contract
manufacturers, or customer demand may be negatively impacted, the
risk posed by vaccine resistance and the emergence of
fast-spreading variants, the risk that the COVID-19 pandemic will
contribute to a global recession and the potential for costs
associated with our operations during the fiscal 2023 third quarter
and future quarters to be greater than we anticipate as a result of
all of these factors; the risk we may be required to record a
significant charge to earnings if our remaining goodwill or
amortizable assets become impaired; risks relating to confidential
information theft or misuse, including through cyber-attacks or
cyber intrusion; our ability to complete development and
commercialization of products under development; the rapid
development of new technology and competing products that may
impair demand or render our products obsolete; the potential lack
of customer acceptance for our products; risks associated with
ongoing litigation; the risk that customers do not maintain their
favorable perception of our brand and products, resulting in lower
demand for our products; the risk that our products fail to perform
or fail to meet customer requirements or expectations, resulting in
significant additional costs; risks associated with strategic
transactions; and other factors discussed in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2022, and subsequent
reports filed with the SEC. These forward-looking statements
represent Wolfspeed's judgment as of the date of this release.
Except as required under the U.S. federal securities laws and the
rules and regulations of the SEC, Wolfspeed disclaims any intent or
obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date
of this release, whether as a result of new information, future
events, developments, changes in assumptions or otherwise.

Wolfspeed, Inc. Non-GAAP Measures of
Financial Performance
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP, Wolfspeed uses non-GAAP measures of certain
components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures
include non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating (loss) income,
non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net, non-GAAP net (loss)
income, non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings per share and free cash
flow.
Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all historical
non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in
the tables included with this press release.
Non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are not in
accordance with or an alternative to measures prepared in
accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures
used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are
not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or
principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not
reflect all of the amounts associated with Wolfspeed's results of
operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP
measures should only be used to evaluate Wolfspeed's results of
operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
Wolfspeed believes that these non-GAAP measures, when shown in
conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, enhance
investors' and management's overall understanding of the Company's
current financial performance and the Company's prospects for the
future, including cash flows available to pursue opportunities to
enhance shareholder value. In addition, because Wolfspeed has
historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, the
Company believes the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides
consistency in the Company's financial reporting.
For its internal budgeting process, and as discussed further
below, Wolfspeed's management uses financial statements that do not
include the items listed below and the income tax effects
associated with the foregoing. Wolfspeed's management also uses
non-GAAP measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures,
in reviewing the Company's financial results.
Wolfspeed excludes the following items from one or more of its
non-GAAP measures when applicable:
Stock-based compensation expense. This expense consists of
expenses for stock options, restricted stock, performance stock
awards and employee stock purchases through its Employee Stock
Purchase Program. Wolfspeed excludes stock-based compensation
expenses from its non-GAAP measures because they are non-cash
expenses that Wolfspeed does not believe are reflective of ongoing
operating results.
Amortization or impairment of acquisition-related intangibles.
Wolfspeed incurs amortization or impairment of acquisition-related
intangibles in connection with acquisitions. Wolfspeed excludes
these items because they arise from Wolfspeed's prior acquisitions
and have no direct correlation to the ongoing operating results of
Wolfspeed's business.
Factory start-up and underutilization costs. The Company has
incurred and will incur start-up costs relating to the Company's
new device fabrication facility in Marcy, New York. Additionally,
as part of the factory optimization plan, the Company incurred
start-up costs relating to the Company's materials factory
expansion in Durham, North Carolina. Wolfspeed does not believe
these costs are reflective of ongoing operating results.
In the second half of fiscal 2023, Wolfspeed expects to start
incurring factory underutilization costs associated with the
ramping of production at the Marcy, New York facility. These costs
represent significant fixed and indirect operating costs of the
facility incurred after production begins but before the facility
is able to produce at its full utilization. Wolfspeed does not
believe these costs are reflective of ongoing operating
results.
In fiscal 2023, the Company targets approximately $125 million
of start-up and underutilization costs primarily related to ramping
of production at the Marcy, New York facility.
Project, transformation and transaction costs. The Company has
incurred professional services fees and other costs associated with
completed and potential acquisitions and divestitures, as well as
internal transformation programs focused on optimizing the
Company's administrative processes. Wolfspeed excludes these items
because Wolfspeed believes they are not reflective of the ongoing
operating results of Wolfspeed's business.
Restructuring costs. The Company has incurred restructuring
costs in connection with various operating plans, including a
multi-year factory optimization plan anchored by a
state-of-the-art, automated 200mm Silicon Carbide device
fabrication facility in Marcy, New York to complement a factory
expansion at its U.S. campus headquarters in Durham, North
Carolina. Because these charges relate to assets which had been
retired prior to the end of their estimated useful lives, Wolfspeed
does not believe these costs are reflective of ongoing operating
results. Similarly, Wolfspeed does not consider the realized net
losses on sale of assets relating to the restructuring to be
reflective of ongoing operating results.
Non-restructuring related executive severance. The Company has
incurred costs in conjunction with the termination of key executive
personnel. Wolfspeed excludes these items because Wolfspeed
believes they have no direct correlation to the ongoing operating
results of Wolfspeed's business.
Gain on arbitration proceedings. In the first quarter of fiscal
2023, Wolfspeed received an arbitration award in relation to a
former customer failing to fulfill contractual obligations to
purchase a certain amount of product over a period of time. A final
payment was received in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
Wolfspeed excludes this item because Wolfspeed believes it is not
reflective of the ongoing operating results of Wolfspeed's
business.
Loss on debt extinguishment related to the conversion of 2023
Notes. In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, all outstanding 0.875%
convertible senior notes due 2023 (2023 Notes) and issued in August
2018 were surrendered for conversion, resulting in the settlement
of the 2023 Notes in approximately 7.1 million shares of the
Company's common stock. This conversion resulted in a loss on
extinguishment of convertible notes. Wolfspeed excludes this item
because Wolfspeed believes it is not reflective of the ongoing
operating results of Wolfspeed's business.
Amortization of discount and debt issuance costs, net of
capitalized interest. The issuance of the Company's convertible
senior notes in April 2020, February 2022 and November 2022 results
in amortization of the convertible notes' issue costs and, in the
prior period before our adoption of ASU 2020-06, interest accretion
of the convertible notes' discount. Wolfspeed considers these items
as either limited in term or having no impact on the Company's cash
flows, and therefore has excluded such items to facilitate a review
of current operating performance and comparisons to the Company's
past operating performance.
Interest income on transaction-related note receivables. In
connection with the completed sale of the LED Products business
unit to SMART Global Holdings, Inc. (SGH) and its wholly owned
acquisition subsidiary CreeLED, Inc. (CreeLED and collectively with
SGH, SMART), the Company received two unsecured promissory notes
issued to the Company in the amounts of $125 million by SGH (the
Purchase Price Note) and $101.8 million by CreeLED (the Earnout
Note, and collectively, the LED Notes). The Company received an
early payment on the Purchase Price Note in the third quarter of
fiscal 2022 and an early payment on the Earnout Note in the first
quarter of fiscal 2023. Unpaid interest on the Earnout Note was
waived in exchange for the early payment. Interest income on the
LED Notes is excluded because Wolfspeed believes it is not
reflective of the ongoing operating results of Wolfspeed's
business.
Loss on Wafer Supply Agreement. In connection with the completed
sale of the LED Products business unit to SMART, the Company
entered into a Wafer Supply and Fabrication Services Agreement (the
Wafer Supply Agreement), pursuant to which the Company supplies
CreeLED with certain Silicon Carbide materials and fabrication
services for up to four years. Wolfspeed excludes the financial
impact of this agreement because Wolfspeed believes it is not
reflective of the ongoing operating results of Wolfspeed's
business.
Income tax adjustment. This amount reconciles GAAP tax (benefit)
expense to a calculated non-GAAP tax (benefit) expense utilizing a
non-GAAP tax rate. The non-GAAP tax rate estimates an appropriate
tax rate if the listed non-GAAP items were excluded. This
reconciling item adjusts non-GAAP net (loss) income to the amount
it would be if the calculated non-GAAP tax rate was applied to
non-GAAP (loss) income before income taxes.
Wolfspeed may incur some of these same expenses, including
income taxes associated with these expenses, in future periods.
In addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, Wolfspeed
also uses free cash flow as a measure of operating performance and
liquidity. Free cash flow represents operating cash flows less net
purchases of property and equipment and patent and licensing
rights. Wolfspeed considers free cash flow to be an operating
performance and a liquidity measure that provides useful
information to management and investors about the amount of cash
generated by the business after the purchases of property and
equipment, a portion of which can then be used to, among other
things, invest in Wolfspeed's business, make strategic acquisitions
and strengthen the balance sheet. A limitation of the utility of
free cash flow as a measure of operating performance and liquidity
is that it does not represent the residual cash flow available to
the company for discretionary expenditures, as it excludes certain
mandatory expenditures such as debt service.
