- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of $4.6 million up from $3.7 million in the comparable quarter last year
“Overall we are very pleased with our financial results in the second quarter, beating our guidance for both EPS and adjusted EBITDA and recording revenue at the high end of our guidance range,” said Martin Kits van Heyningen, KVH’s chief executive officer. “In our maritime VSAT market, we continue to see solid demand in commercial shipping and leisure offsetting the slowdown in offshore oil and gas vessels. After a slow start in the first quarter, FOG sales rebounded nicely this quarter and we were particularly pleased with sales of our new IMU product line.”

Second Quarter Financial Summary
Revenue was $44.9 million for the second quarter, an increase of 10% compared to the second quarter of 2014. Second quarter product revenues of $17.9 million were 15% lower than the prior year quarter, primarily due to an 85% year-over-year decline in TACNAV® revenues. Offsetting this decline was a 10% year-over-year increase in our fiber optic gyro revenues and a 13% increase in VSAT product revenues. Service revenues in the second quarter were $26.9 million, an increase of 35% compared to the second quarter of 2014, and includes $5.8 million of revenues from Videotel, which we acquired in July 2014. Airtime service revenues, which include mini-VSAT Broadband airtime revenues, were up 8% year-over-year. Content and services revenues, which include our entertainment and new e-Learning and safety content, and $5.8 million of Videotel revenues, were up 117% in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014.
For the second quarter, net income on a GAAP basis was $0.0 million, or $0.00 per share, while non-GAAP net income was $2.1 million or $0.13 per diluted share. During the same period last year, the company reported a GAAP net profit of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, and a non-GAAP net profit of $1.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $4.6 million for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $3.7 million in the prior year quarter. Included in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $1.3 million and $0.5 million related to the amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The year-over-year increase in amortization was attributable to our acquisition of Videotel on July 2, 2014.
Six-Months Ended June 30 Financial Summary
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, revenue was $86.2 million, up 11% compared to $77.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Product revenues for the 2015 six-month period of $33.3 million, were 15% lower than the comparable period last year, which was due primarily to a 37% decline in guidance & stabilization product revenues year-over-year. Service revenues for the 2015 six-month period of $52.8 million were 36% higher than the comparable period last year. Airtime service revenues in the 2015 six-month period increased 9% year-over-year while content and services revenues increased 115% reflecting the addition of Videotel.
The company reported a GAAP net loss of $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, or $0.09 per share. During the same period last year, the company recorded a GAAP net loss of $1.1 million or $0.07 per share. The company recorded non-GAAP net income of $3.0 million or $0.19 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.9 million, or $0.12 in the prior year period.
Third Quarter 2015 and Full Year 2015 Outlook
Overall KVH expects continued growth and improving profitability as we progress throughout the year. We expect solid growth in our marine VSAT business while we expect our defense business to remain flat. The vast majority of our TACNAV revenues this year are projected for the fourth quarter. Our revenue projections assume that we still receive one particular significant TACNAV order in time for 2015 delivery.
A portion of our revenues and costs are denominated in pounds sterling, and significant fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly between the U.S. dollar and pounds sterling, such as have occurred in recent quarters, may have a material impact on our revenue and earnings. For the full year, our guidance is set out below (the guidance below assumes an exchange rate of $1.55 to one pound sterling for the balance of 2015):
- Revenue for the full year is projected to be $185 million to $205 million.
- For the full year, GAAP EPS is projected to be in the range of $0.20-$0.30. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is projected to be $23.5 million to $26 million with non-GAAP diluted EPS for the full year projected to be in the range of $0.75 to $0.85
- Revenue for the third quarter is projected to be in the range of $44 million to $47 million.
- For the third quarter, GAAP net income (loss) per share to be in the range of $(0.03) to $0.03. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is projected to be $3.8 million to $5.0 million with non-GAAP diluted EPS for the third quarter projected to be in the range of $0.11 to $0.17.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Provided in this release is non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted EPS, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, as a supplement to the condensed financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing financial results to assess operational performance and liquidity. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. KVH believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. KVH believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used in making operating decisions and because its investors and analysts use them to help assess the health of its business.
Some limitations of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP diluted EPS, include the following:
- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses, and adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions.
- Non-GAAP net income (loss) and diluted EPS exclude acquisition-related expenses, adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions, adjustments related to stock-based compensation and intangible amortization, all net of tax, and also excludes any discrete tax items.
Other companies, including companies in KVH’s industry, may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently or not at all, which will reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures together with other financial performance measures, including net income (loss), diluted net income (loss) per share, and KVH’s other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. See the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations below for further details.
