SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative networking and Internet connected products to consumers and businesses, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018.

Net revenue for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018 was $288.9 million, as compared to $274.1 million in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017, and $269.4 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2018. Net income from continuing operations, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $1.1 million, or $0.03 net income per diluted share from continuing operations. This compared to GAAP net loss from continuing operations of $41.8 million, or $1.33 net loss per diluted share from continuing operations, in the fourth quarter of 2017, and GAAP net income from continuing operations of $16.3 million, or $0.49 net income per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018.

Operating margin, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the fourth quarter of 2018 was 6.0%, as compared to 2.0% in the year ago comparable quarter, and 7.4% in the third quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP operating margin was 9.4% in the fourth quarter of 2018, as compared to 4.6% in the fourth quarter of 2017 and 10.5% in the third quarter of 2018.

Net revenue for the full year of 2018 was $1.06 billion, a 1.9% increase as compared to $1.04 billion for 2017. Net income from continuing operations, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the full year 2018 was $19.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net loss from continuing operations of $11.1 million, or $0.35 net loss per diluted share, for 2017. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations was $1.94 per diluted share for the full year of 2018, as compared to non-GAAP net income from continuing operations of $1.68 per diluted share for 2017. Operating margin, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the full year of 2018 was 3.7%, as compared to 4.1% for 2017. Non-GAAP operating margin was 7.2% in the full year of 2018, as compared to 7.0% for 2017.

On December 31, 2018, the Company completed the distribution of 62,500,000 shares of the outstanding common stock of Arlo Technologies, Inc. (“Arlo”) to NETGEAR’s shareholders (the “Distribution”). Prior to the Distribution, NETGEAR owned approximately 84.2% of Arlo common stock. Following the completion of the Distribution, NETGEAR no longer owns any shares of Arlo common stock.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, Arlo’s historical financial results for periods prior to the Distribution will be reflected in NETGEAR’s consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations. Supplemental financial tables for NETGEAR's prior twelve quarters, excluding Arlo, are provided in this release.

The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.

Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, "We had a successful fourth quarter of 2018, driven by Orbi, Nighthawk Pro Gaming, cable modems and gateways, and our SMB switching portfolio, in particular the PoE and ProAV switches. Our financial results for the quarter came in at the high end of our guidance range for revenue and operating margin. We delivered a healthy profit in Q4 and saw year-over-year top line growth for both the CHP and SMB segments."

Mr. Lo continued, “We are pleased to report that we reached 9.7 million registered users in Q4, which represents the foundation for building our paid subscriber base. We are also thrilled to report that our number of registered app users reached 1.4 million for the fourth quarter, which is over double the amount that we last shared in September of 2018."

"On the product front, we had two significant product launches during the quarter, which were our industry-leading Wi-Fi 6 router, as well as the world's first millimeter wave 5G device with AT&T. We were also pleased with the reception that Meural, the world's leading smart digital canvas, received during the holiday season and at the Consumer Electronics Show."

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, "On December 31st, we completed the spin-off of the Arlo business through a distribution of Arlo Technologies common stock to NETGEAR’s shareholders. Upon the completion of the distribution, NETGEAR no longer owns any shares of Arlo common stock. Arlo’s financial results for all historical periods, including the quarter in which the distribution occurred, will now be reclassified into NETGEAR discontinued operations. We’d like to acknowledge all of the hard work from both the NETGEAR and Arlo teams that went into completing the spin.”

Business Outlook

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, "Looking forward to the first quarter of 2019, in line with the seasonality we described previously, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $235 million to $250 million. GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 4.5% to 5.5%. Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 8.0% to 9.0%. Our GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 27.0% and our non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be 24.5% for the first quarter of 2019.”

A reconciliation between the Business Outlook on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in the following table:

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement our unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share. These non-GAAP financial measures represent results from continuing operations. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, separation expense, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain (loss) on investments, impairment charges to investments, gain on litigation settlements, and the related tax effects. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to our ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

  • the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results;
  • the ability to better identify trends in our underlying business and perform related trend analyses;
  • a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business; and
  • an easier way to compare our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding them in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Amortization of intangibles consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing performance and forecasting our earnings trends, and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of our competitors.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options, restricted stock units and shares under the employee stock purchase plan granted to employees. We believe that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on our operating results.

Other items consist of certain items that are the result of either unique or unplanned events, including, when applicable: separation expense, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain on litigation settlements, gain (loss) on investments, and impairment charges to investments. It is difficult to predict the occurrence or estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods. The amounts result from events that often arise from unforeseen circumstances, which often occur outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Therefore, the amounts do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our continuing business operations for the period in which they are incurred.

Tax effects consist of the various above adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income. We also believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding the on-going performance of our business.
