BEAVERTON, OR--(Marketwired - Jul 28, 2015) - Cascade Microtech, Inc. (
Financial Summary
Results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 were as follows:
"Cascade Microtech's quarterly revenue grew by 13.6% for Q2 compared with Q1 of 2015,driven by both our Systems and Probes segments, with our Probes segment setting a new all-time revenue record," said Michael Burger, President and CEO. Mr. Burger continued, "Company-wide gross margins also set a new record of 55.6%, which exceeds our recently adopted Success Model for this metric, and reflects the leverage capability in the business. Our expanding gross profit exceeded our increased investment in new product development, which generated an EPS that came in near the upper end of our guidance range. We posted a book-to-bill ratio of 1.21 as each of our segments were greater than 1 for the quarter, which drove an all-time record backlog for the company." Mr. Burger concluded by stating, "We are very pleased with the results of Q2 and remain optimistic about the balance of 2015 as our Probe products continue to gain market share and we are seeing continued acceleration in our Systems business."
Financial Outlook
For the third quarter of 2015 we are projecting revenue in the range of $35.0 million to $39.0 million, with diluted GAAP earnings per share in the range of $0.14 to $0.20, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.17 to $0.23. Our guidance assumes a tax rate of 32%, consistent foreign currency exchange rates and no significant one-time charges.
We will host a conference call beginning at 5:00 p.m. EDT (2:00 p.m. PDT) on Tuesday, July 28, 2015, to discuss our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
