SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 30, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Applied Micro Circuits Corporation (Nasdaq:AMCC) today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2009.
Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were $74.1 million compared to $71.5 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, representing a sequential growth of 4% and a growth of 48% over the $50.1 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
The net loss on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 was $5.2 million or $(0.08) per share. The first quarter GAAP net loss compares with a net loss of $86.3 million or $(1.33) per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 and a net loss of $16.4 million or $(0.23) per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
The non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 was $7.7 million or $0.12 per share, compared to the non-GAAP net income of $6.0 million or $0.09 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008. Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was $7.3 million or $(0.10) per share. Non-GAAP net income as a percentage of revenue expanded from 8.4 percent in the fourth quarter to 10.4 percent in the first quarter.
"I am pleased with our financial results for the June quarter. Our revenue growth was at the upper end of our guidance. We expect revenues to further expand in the September quarter. Our product cycles remain strong and are improving," said Kambiz Hooshmand, president and chief executive officer.
Bob Gargus, chief financial officer commented, "We continued our focus on profitability, our non-GAAP gross margin improved to 58.1 percent of revenue from 55.5 percent of revenue last quarter while we maintained solid expense control. We were cash flow positive and our asset management -- particularly inventory, continues to improve. Overall a very solid quarter and we are definitely moving in the right direction."
AMCC reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP and also provides additional financial data that have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP results and other financial measures reported by the Company exclude certain items that are required by GAAP, such as restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation charges, impairment of goodwill, strategic investment written off, other than temporary impairment on investments, tax provision related to the creation of deferred tax liability relating to a prior asset purchase acquisition transaction, payroll tax on certain stock option exercises and expenses related to stock option investigation and other litigation. Expenses related to stock option investigation consist primarily of fees paid to professional service firms in connection with the Company's internal investigation of historical stock option grant practices and the resulting restatement of the Company's financial statements, the investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Attorney's office arising from the internal investigation and the defense of derivative lawsuits arising from the Company's internal investigation and other litigation relates to an accrual made for a potential litigation settlement. Income taxes are adjusted to an estimated non-GAAP effective tax rate. These non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures and may not be consistent with the presentation used by other companies. The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and manage its operations. The Company is providing this information to allow investors to perform additional financial analysis and because it is consistent with the financial models and estimates published by analysts who follow the Company. The attached schedule reconciles non-GAAP results and other financial measures reported by the Company with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
